Immunocompatibility of Bacteriophages as Nanomedicines by Tranum Kaur, Nafiseh Nafissi, Olla Wasfi, Katlyn Sheldon, Shawn Wettig, Roderick Slavcev

“…As phage applications to human therapeutic development grow at an exponential rate, it will become essential to evaluate host immune responses to initial and repetitive challenges by therapeutic phage in order to develop phage therapies that offer suitable utility. This paper examines and discusses phage nanomedicine applications and the immunomodulatory effects of bacteriophage exposure and treatment modalities.…”

Biological Characteristics and Whole-Genome Analysis of a Porcine <i>E. coli</i> Phage by Shenghui Wan, Nana Li, Sajid Habib, Pei Zheng, Yanfang Li, Yan Liang, Yonggang Qu

“…In doing so, we provided a reference for phage therapies that can be used to treat multidrug-resistant strains. (2) Method: Using the multidrug-resistant <i>E. coli</i> isolate sq-1 as the host bacterium, bacteriophages were isolated and purified from fecal samples using a double-layer agar plate method. …”
