PHAGE COCKTAILS AGAINST HIGHLY MULTI-DRUG RESISTANT ACINETOBACTER BAUMANII [PDF]
The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018 Background:Phage therapy is a potential alternative treatment for infections caused by many bacterial species such as Acinetobacter baumannii (A.

Rapid resistance evolution against phage cocktails
bioRxivWhen bacteria are treated with multiple antibiotics simultaneously, resistance is highly unlikely to evolve. In stark contrast, resistance against multiple phages frequently arises during therapy.

Characterization of newly isolated lytic bacteriophages active against Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
, 2014 Based on genotyping and host range, two newly isolated lytic bacteriophages, myovirus vB_AbaM_Acibel004 and podovirus vB_AbaP_Acibel007, active against Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains, were selected from a new phage library for further ...

Viruses, 2023 Phage therapy of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is of great interest due to the rising incidence of multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens. However, natural or therapy-induced immunity against therapeutic phages remains a potential concern.

Pharmaceuticals, 2021 Phage therapy is the use of bacterial viruses as antibacterial agents. A primary consideration for commercial development of phages for phage therapy is the number of different bacterial strains that are successfully targeted, as this defines the breadth

Isolation, characterisation and experimental evolution of phage that infect the horse chestnut tree pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. aesculi [PDF]
, 2020 Bleeding canker of horse chestnut trees is a bacterial disease, caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. aesculi, estimated to be present in ~ 50% of UK horse chestnut trees.

Phage cocktail powder for Pseudomonas aeruginosa respiratory infections
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2021 Phage cocktail broadens the host range compared with a single phage and minimizes the development of phage-resistant bacteria thereby promoting the long-term usefulness of inhaled phage therapy. In this study, we produced a phage cocktail powder by spray drying three Pseudomonas phages PEV2 (podovirus), PEV1 and PEV20 (both myovirus) with lactose (80 ...

Bacteriophages as an Up-and-Coming Alternative to the Use of Sulfur Dioxide in Winemaking [PDF]
, 2020 Certain acetic and lactic acid bacteria are major causes of quality defects in musts and wines, giving rise to defects such as a "vinegary," "sharp, like nail polish-remover" taste or preventing alcoholic and/or malolactic fermentation. Sulfur dioxide is

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022 Using bacteriophages (phages) as environmental sanitizers has been recognized as a potential alternative method to remove bacterial contamination in vitro; however, very few studies are available on the application of phages for infection control in ...
