The Epic of Phage Therapy [PDF]
The present report describes the presentation given by Dr Alain Dublanchet at the Stanier/Oxford Hygiene Symposium, held in Oxford, England, on November 10, 2004. Dr Dublanchet′s lecture, entitled ‘The epic of phage therapy’, provided a sequential account of the use of phage as an antimicrobial from its discovery to its rise and fall and current ...

Phage therapy: progress in pharmacokinetics [PDF]
The concept of phage therapy exists in the history and it has been ignored for a long time, but the consequence of drug resistance in pathogen bacteria has forced the forgotten kingdom of phage therapy to be re-explored.

Phage Therapy in the Postantibiotic Era [PDF]
Antibiotic resistance is arguably the biggest current threat to global health. An increasing number of infections are becoming harder or almost impossible to treat, carrying high morbidity, mortality, and financial cost.

Phage Therapy in Veterinary Medicine [PDF]
To overcome the obstacle of antimicrobial resistance, researchers are investigating the use of phage therapy as an alternative and/or supplementation to antibiotics to treat and prevent infections both in humans and in animals. In the first part of this review, we describe the unique biological characteristics of bacteriophages and the crucial aspects ...

Phage Therapy: Going Temperate? [PDF]
Strictly lytic phages have been consensually preferred for phage therapy purposes. In contrast, temperate phages have been avoided due to an inherent capacity to mediate transfer of genes between bacteria by specialized transduction - an event that may increase bacterial virulence, for example, by promoting antibiotic resistance.

Animal Models of Phage Therapy [PDF]
Amidst the rising tide of antibiotic resistance, phage therapy holds promise as an alternative to antibiotics. Most well-designed studies on phage therapy exist in animal models. In order to progress to human clinical trials, it is important to understand what these models have accomplished and determine how to improve upon them.
