Polyvalent phage GSP004 recognizes O-antigen polysaccharide receptors in Salmonella and Escherichia coli through tail fiber protein ORF208 [PDF]
The majority of phages are capable of lysing only specific bacterial strains within a single species, and polyvalent phages with cross-genus lytic capability are relatively rare.

Isolation and characterization of bacteriophages with lytic activity against multidrug-resistant non-typhoidal Salmonella from Nairobi City county, Kenya [PDF]
Background Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) typically cause self-limiting enterocolitis, but can lead to life-threatening invasive diseases, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa.

Isolation, Characterization, and Efficacy of Three Lytic Phages Infecting Multidrug-Resistant Salmonella Serovars from Poultry Farms in Egypt [PDF]
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella serovars are considered a significant threat to veterinary and public health. Developing new antimicrobial compounds that can treat the infection caused by these notorious pathogens is a big challenge.

SPECIALIZED TRANSDUCING PHAGES DERIVED FROM SALMONELLA PHAGE P22 [PDF]
Salmonella phage P22 has been used in the construction of three sorts of specialized transducing phage: P22 proAB, P22 proABlac and P22 argF. The bacterial genes carried are derived from E. coli K12. Since E. coli and Salmonella chromosomes recombine very poorly, E.

Genomic and functional characterization of five novel Salmonella-targeting bacteriophages
Background The host-unrestricted, non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) and the serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) are major causative agents of food-borne gastroenteritis, and the host-restricted Salmonella enterica ...

Receptor diversity and host interaction of bacteriophages infecting Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhimurium is a gram-negative pathogen causing salmonellosis. Salmonella Typhimurium-targeting bacteriophages have been proposed as an alternative biocontrol agent to antibiotics.
