A newly developed laboratory tool can, within hours, help to identify specific viruses which can be used to destroy variants ...

Dennis D'Amico, associate professor of animal science, has demonstrated that bacteriophages can effectively reduce the amount of common foodborne pathogens in milk.

“The field of phage biology has seen an explosion over ... of the phages and the genetic material inside. They then grew E.

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 ...

“E. coli is a bug that we all have in our intestines ... There is hope in the fight against pathogens, which has seen a lot of activity around phage-based interventions.

No one should have to fear food poisoning every time they eat or drink, but the reality, even in the 21st century, is that ...

Bacteria navigate tradeoffs between phage resistance and interbacterial competition. This study reveals that while LPS ...

Their potential as antibacterial agents was appreciated almost immediately, with the first 'phage therapy' trials predating Fleming's discovery of penicillin by approximately a decade. In this ...

Esvelt’s system, dubbed phage-assisted continuous evolution, or PACE, allowed scientists to hit fast forward, evolving a protein with a specific function in as little as a week. 1 The PACE system has ...
