Bacteriophage therapy: back to the future [PDF]
Клиническая микробиология и антимикробная химиотерапия, 2021 In connection with growing problem of antimicrobial resistance, the search for alternative treatments for infection is popular topic nowadays. This article represents an overview of published data on the therapeutic use of bacteriophages, specifically in

Microorganisms, 2022 Treatment of infections caused by bacteria has become more complex due to the increasing number of bacterial strains that are resistant to conventional antimicrobial therapy. A highly promising alternative appears to be bacteriophage (phage) therapy, in which natural predators of bacteria, bacteriophages, play a role.

Virus isolation studies suggest short-term variations in abundance in natural cyanophage populations of the Indian Ocean [PDF]
, 2006 Cyanophage abundance has been shown to fluctuate over long timescales and with depth, but little is known about how it varies over short timescales. Previous short-term studies have relied on counting total virus numbers and therefore the phages which ...

Bacteriophage, 2015 The resurgence of interest in bacteriophages for use in combating antibiotic resistant bacteria is coincident with an urgent call for more effective science education practices, including hands-on learning opportunities. To address this issue, a number of solutions have been proposed, including a large educational experiment, begun in 2007 by the ...

Genomic Analysis of Molecular Bacterial Mechanisms of Resistance to Phage Infection
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 To optimize phage therapy, we need to understand how bacteria evolve against phage attacks. One of the main problems of phage therapy is the appearance of bacterial resistance variants.

Bacteriophage, 2011 Bacteriophages or phages are the most abundant organisms in the biosphere and they are a ubiquitous feature of prokaryotic existence. A bacteriophage is a virus which infects a bacterium. Archaea are also infected by viruses, whether these should be referred to as 'phages' is debatable, but they are included as such in the scope this article.
