Despite much promise in overcoming drug-resistant infections, clinical studies of bacteriophage antibacterial therapy have failed to show durable effectiveness. Although lysogeny plays an important ...
Some things just go together in your belly: peanut butter and jelly, salt and pepper, bacteria and bacteria-eating viruses. For the bacterial species that inhabit your gut, there's a frenzy of viruses ...
An interdisciplinary team of Rice University researchers has uncovered previously unknown relationships between ...
Antimicrobial resistance—when bacteria and fungi defend themselves against the drugs designed to kill them—is an urgent threat to global public health, according to the Centers for Disease Control and ...
As antibiotic-resistant "superbugs" make infections trickier to treat, some in the medical community are turning to bacteriophages for backup. Also known as phages, these viruses exclusively target ...
Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect and kill bacteria. These microscopic predators are found everywhere, from soil and water to food and the human gut. Because they attack only specific ...
Phage therapy is emerging as a promising alternative to antibiotics for treating various infections. However, there have been no prior studies on using bacteriophages for peritonitis in patients ...
Bacteriophage T7, a virus that preys on E. coli, becomes a more effective killer after spending time aboard the International Space Station, according to new research from University of ...
WASHINGTON, DC — Research on the gut microbiome — and clinical attention to it — has focused mainly on bacteria, but bacteriophages and fungi play critical roles as well, with significant influences ...
Researchers from New England Biolabs (NEB®) and Yale University describe the first fully synthetic bacteriophage engineering system for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an antibiotic-resistant bacterium of ...
