"Phage treatment is a way of harnessing the natural antibacterial properties of phages to limit E. coli and other important foodborne pathogens," Ebner said. "Applying this kind of therapy to ...

Women, beansprouts, cucumbers, bacteria, cows: the cast of the current European Escherichia coli outbreak is already a crowd. Enter the phage. Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria ...

Women, beansprouts, cucumbers, bacteria, cows: the cast of the current European Escherichia coli outbreak is already a crowd. Enter the phage. Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria ...

A bacteriophage (phage) which is mostly specific for E. coli O157 has been isolated to kill the pathogen on beef. Researchers isolated and characterised phage FAHEc1, which infects E. coli O157, and ...

A new detection system for E. coli 0157: H7 is faster and more precise than molecular methods, claim the French licence holders. BioMérieux, a supplier of diagnostic systems, said that its new phage ...

"We genetically modified this phage in such a way that it would infect the bacteria and cause it to produce light," Applegate said. After infecting E. coli O157:H7, the phage integrates its genome ...

LBP-EC01 is a bacteriophage ‘cocktail’ that has been modified using CRISPR/Cas3 gene-editing to improve its ability to target the E coli genome. Lab studies have demonstrated it is ...

coli infections? Advances in treating E. coli infections, like the strain causing the outbreak in Alberta (O157:H7), are not that well developed. Phage therapy might be a promising route ...

The strain of Escherichia coli ... Shiga toxin on a lambda phage, a type of virus that infects bacteria and commonly carries genes between them. The strains of E. coli that produce Shiga toxin ...
