Preoptimized phage cocktail for use in aerosols against nosocomial transmission of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii: A 3-year prospective intervention study

open access: yesEcotoxicology 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 ...

Tandem Repeat Analysis for Surveillance of Human Salmonella Typhimurium Infections

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
In Denmark, as part of the national laboratory-based surveillance system of human enteric infections, all Salmonella Typhimurium isolates are currently subtyped by using phage typing, antimicrobial resistance profiles, and pulsed-field gel ...

Genetic basis of phage-host interaction: Towards effective phage therapy of non-typhoidal Salmonella

open access: yes, 2022
Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) have adapted to cause invasive illness in humans. Bacteria have developed MDR against current antibiotics. Bacteriophage therapy is the hope for bacterial treatment however one of the key limitations is the limited host ...

Distribution of Gifsy-3 and of variants of ST64B and Gifsy-1 prophages amongst Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium isolates: evidence that combinations of prophages promote clonality. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Salmonella isolates harbour a range of resident prophages which can influence their virulence and ability to compete and survive in their environment. Phage gene profiling of a range of phage types of Salmonella enterica subsp.

Phage typing of Salmonella Typhimurium - is it still a useful tool for surveillance and outbreak investigation?

open access: yesEuro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, 2010
Phage typing has for decades been useful as a phenotypical, definitive method for epidemiological characterisation of Salmonella Typhimurium. The system recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborative Centre for phage typing of ...

Typing of Panton-Valentine Leukocidin-encoding Phages and lukSF-PV Gene Sequence Variation in Staphylococcus aureus from China

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Panton-Valentine leucocidin (PVL, encoded by lukSF-PV genes), a bi-component and pore-forming toxin, is carried by different staphylococcal bacteriophages. The prevalence of PVL in Staphylococcus aureus (S.

New phage typing scheme for Vibrio cholerae O1 biotype El Tor strains

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1993
The conventional phage typing scheme proposed by S. Basu and S. Mukerjee (Experientia 24:299-300, 1968) has been used routinely for identification of the strains at the Vibrio Phage Reference Laboratory since 1968. However, because of limitations of this

New Bacteriophages with Podoviridal Morphotypes Active against Yersinia pestis: Characterization and Application Potential

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Phages of highly pathogenic bacteria represent an area of growing interest for bacterial detection and identification and subspecies typing, as well as for phage therapy and environmental decontamination. Eight new phages—YpEc56, YpEc56D, YpEc57, YpEe58,
