Phage Therapy vs. the Use of Antibiotics in the Treatment of Salmonella-Infected Chickens: Comparison of Effects on Hematological Parameters and Selected Biochemical Markers

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Previous studies indicated that the use of a phage cocktail, composed of bacteriophages vB_SenM-2 and vB_Sen-TO17, is effective in killing cells of Salmonella enterica serovars Typhimurium and Enteritidis in vitro and in the Galleria mellonella animal ...

Phage Cocktails and the Future of Phage Therapy

open access: yesFuture Microbiology, 2013
Viruses of bacteria, known as bacteriophages or phages, were discovered nearly 100 years ago. Their potential as antibacterial agents was appreciated almost immediately, with the first 'phage therapy' trials predating Fleming's discovery of penicillin by approximately a decade.

A Novel Method to Create Efficient Phage Cocktails via Use of Phage-Resistant Bacteria

open access: greenApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2022
The rapid antiphage mutation of pathogens is a big challenge often encountered in phage therapy. Using a cocktail composed of phages with different infection strategies can better overcome this problem.

Liposome Entrapment of Bacteriophages Improves Wound Healing in a Diabetic Mouse MRSA Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Diabetic populations are more prone to developing wound infections which results in poor and delayed wound healing. Infection with drug resistant organisms further worsen the situation, driving searches for alternative treatment approaches such as phage ...

Comparison of bacterial suppression by phage cocktails, dual-receptor generalists, and coevolutionarily trained phages

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2022
AbstractThe evolution and spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria have renewed interest in phage therapy, the use of bacterial viruses (phages) to combat bacterial infections. The delivery of phages in cocktails where constituent phages target different modalities (e.g., receptors) may improve treatment outcomes by making it more difficult for bacteria

Use of a Specific Phage Cocktail for Soft Rot Control on Ware Potatoes: A Case Study

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Using bacteriophages (bacterial viruses) to control pathogenic bacteria is a promising approach in horticulture. However, the application of this strategy in real conditions requires compliance with particular technological and environmental restraints ...

Efficacy and Safety of a Bovine-Associated Staphylococcus aureus Phage Cocktail in a Murine Model of Mastitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Overuse of antibiotics is a major problem in the treatment of bovine mastitis, and antibiotic treatment is frequently non-curative, thus alternative treatments are necessary.

Bacteriophage Cocktail-Mediated Inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm on Endotracheal Tube Surface

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Although different strategies to control biofilm formation on endotracheal tubes have been proposed, there are scarce scientific data on applying phages for both removing and preventing Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms on the device surface.
