An enterococcal phage-derived enzyme suppresses graft-versus-host disease. Nature, 2024; DOI: 10.1038/s41586-024-07667-8 ...

Identification of bacteriophage-derived enzyme and its antibacterial activity can contribute to novel therapies that target biofilm-forming bacteria and help in the treatment against acute graft ...

While more than 25 phages have been isolated against E. faecalis, only the one known as EFDG1 has been tested on E. faecalis biofilms, the authors noted. This phage, which they report is isolated from ...

So far, I have developed and studied models for biofilms, quorum sensing, t6ss killing, and characterizations to determine the success of bacterial genotypes in ecological processes, within-host ...

To test the efficacy of a single phage vs. the triple-phage cocktail on Klebseilla pneumoniae biofilms, the vB_KpnP_FZ12 bacteriophage was chosen as the most prolific on Kl 315. Results ...

Stefanie Huttelmaier, Weitao Shuai, Jack Sumner, Erica M. Hartmann. Phage communities in household-related biofilms correlate with bacterial hosts but do not associate with other environmental ...

Researchers in Japan have discovered that a phage-derived enzyme called endolysin, which targets highly resistant biofilm-forming bacteria, could help restore the gut microbiota to mitigate acute ...

While phage therapy has been around for over 100 years, the treatment still isn’t a main part of medicine. American doctors used it often in the 1940s, but it later fell out of favor by many.
