Phage typing or CRISPR typing for epidemiological surveillance of Salmonella Typhimurium? [PDF]
Objective Salmonella Typhimurium is the most dominant Salmonella serovar around the world. It is associated with foodborne gastroenteritis outbreaks but has recently been associated with invasive illness and deaths. Characterization of S.

Long-read sequencing-based in silico phage typing of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
Background Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are successful nosocomial pathogens able to cause hospital outbreaks. In the Netherlands, core-genome MLST (cgMLST) based on short-read sequencing is often used for molecular typing.

Genomic analysis of Anderson typing phages of Salmonella Typhimrium: towards understanding the basis of bacteria-phage interaction [PDF]
The Anderson phage typing scheme has been successfully used worldwide for epidemiological surveillance of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Although the scheme is being replaced by whole genome sequence subtyping methods, it can provide a valuable

Characterisation of Phage Susceptibility Variation in Salmonellaenterica Serovar Typhimurium DT104 and DT104b [PDF]
The surge in mortality and morbidity rates caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria prompted a renewal of interest in bacteriophages (phages) as clinical therapeutics and natural biocontrol agents.

A Rapid Screening Strategy for Secondary Bacteriophages to Counter Phage Resistance in Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is a major nosocomial pathogen; bacteriophage therapy is a promising alternative, but its principal challenge is the rapid emergence of phage resistance.

Bacteria are susceptible to phage (viral) infections. One of the most important properties of phages is host specificity. Phages can be so selective that they will distinguish varieties among apparently identical organisms. By exposing au isolate growing
