Recently, multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria are responsible for a large number of
infectious diseases that can be life-threatening. Globally, new approaches are targeted to …

The ESKAPE pathogens are the primary threat due to their constant spread of drug
resistance worldwide. These pathogens are also regarded as opportunistic pathogens and …

Solutions for bone and joint infection (BJI) are needed where conventional treatments are
inadequate. Bacteriophages (phages) are naturally occurring viruses that infect bacteria and …

Bovine mastitis is a polymicrobial disease characterised by inflammation of the udders of
dairy and beef cattle. The infection has huge implications to health and welfare of animals …

Phage therapy is the application of bacterial viruses to control and, ideally, to eliminate
problematic bacteria from patients. Usually employed are so-called strictly lytic phages …

The past decade has seen the emergence of multidrug resistant pathogens as a leading
cause of death worldwide, reigniting interest in the field of phage therapy. Modern advances …

High rates of antimicrobial resistance and formation of biofilms makes treatment of
Escherichia coli catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) particularly challenging …

Extensive efforts are underway to develop bacteriophages as therapies against antibiotic-
resistant bacteria. However, these efforts are confounded by the instability of phage …

Background There is increased interest in bacteriophage (phage) therapy to treat infections
caused by antibiotic‐resistant bacteria. A lung transplant recipient with cystic fibrosis and …

Phages possess the ability to selectively eliminate pathogenic bacteria by recognizing
bacterial surface receptors. Since their discovery, phages have been recognized for their …
