Bacteriophages (phages) have a long history of use in Eastern Europe and are poised for wider exploitation as novel antimicrobials in the context of anti-microbial resistance. Integrating phages into mainstream medicine requires an in-depth understanding of phages and of regulatory, economic and practical frameworks. Here we summarise insights from...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major problem globally. The main bacterial organisms associated with urinary tract infection (UTI) associated sepsis are E. coli and Klebsiella along with Enterobacter species. These all have AMR strains known as ESBL (Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase), which are featured on the WHO priority pathogens list as “cr...
Bacteriophages offer a viable solution to addressing the global issue of bacterial resistance to antimicrobials. Although knowledge of bacteriophages has increased greatly since their discovery in 1915, a significant amount of what is currently known is based on studies conducted in model conditions and aerobic environments. There are a variety of...
