Therapeutic bacteriophage compositions
The present invention relates to a bacteriophage composition comprising one or more (suitably two or more, or three) bacteriophages selected from Sa87, J-Sa36, Sa83, J-Sa37, or mutants thereof, use of the same for medical or non-medical applications, kits, bandage, and wound dressing comprising the same.
Antibacterial phage, phage peptides and methods of use thereof
The present invention is directed to the field of phage therapy for the treatment and control of bacterial infections. In particular, the present invention is directed to the novel bacteriophage F387/08, F391/08, F394/08, F488/08, F510/08, F44/10, and F125/10, isolated polypeptides thereof, compositions comprising one or more of the novel bacteriophage and/or isolated polypeptides, as well as to methods for the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections using same, either alone or in combination with other antibacterial therapies, e.g., antibiotics and/or other phage therapies.
BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF BACTERIOPHAGE TREATMENTS
The invention elates to use of one or more bacteriophages in vivo in a human or animal in order to induce sensitivity to chemical antibiotics in bacterial cells, where such susceptibility is heritable, independent of continuing bacteriophage metabolism within those cells, and does not relate to the destruction of a biofilm to induce such sensitivity.
Multiple host range bacteriophage with different tail fibres
Modified bacteriophage and compositions containing the modified bacteriophage are described. Exemplary compositions are useful for human treatment and may treat various conditions, including bacterial infections.
PHAGE THERAPY
The present invention relates to bacteriophage therapy. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel bacteriophages having a high specificity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, their manufacture, components thereof, compositions comprising the same and the uses thereof in phage therapy.
MULTIPLE HOST RANGE BACTERIOPHAGE WITH DIFFERENT TAIL FIBRES
Modified bacteriophage, uses thereof, and compositions containing the modified bacteriophage are described. The compositions are useful for human treatment and may treat various conditions, including bacterial infections.
ALTERING MICROBIAL POPULATIONS & MODIFYING MICROBIOTA
The invention relates to methods, uses, systems, arrays, engineered nucleotide sequences and vectors for inhibiting bacterial population growth or for altering the relative ratio of sub-populations of first and second bacteria in a mixed population of bacteria. The invention is particularly useful, for example, for treatment of microbes such as for environmental, medical, food and beverage use. The invention relates inter alia to methods of controlling microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) or biofouling of a substrate or fluid in an industrial or domestic system.
Branched receptor binding multi-subunit protein complexes for use in bacterial delivery vehicles
The present disclosure relates generally to bacterial delivery vehicles for use in efficient transfer of a desired payload into a target bacterial cell. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to bacterial delivery vehicles with desired host ranges based on the presence of a chimeric receptor binding protein (RBP) composed of a fusion between the N-terminal region of a RBP derived from a lambda-like bacteriophage and the C-terminal region of a different RBP, and/or the presence of an engineered branched receptor binding multi-subunit polypeptides (“branched-RBP”).

The invention relates inter alia to methods of controlling microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) or biofouling of a substrate or fluid in an industrial or domestic system.
Phage and use thereof in soil remediation
A phage and use thereof in soil remediation are disclosed. The phage φYSZPK has been deposited at the China Center for Type Culture Collection on Aug. 1, 2018 under Accession No. CCTCC M 2018516, and its taxonomic designation is Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella phage φYSZPK. Biochar and the screened phage are combined and returned into contaminated soil to synergistically control and deeply track and inactivate transmission and spread of antibiotic resistance pathogenic bacteria and resistance genes in a soil-vegetable system. The combination of the biochar and the phage φYSZPK not only clearly improves the functional stability of microbial community in the soil-vegetable system, but also significantly alleviates the dissemination of the antibiotic resistance pathogenic bacteria in the soil-vegetable system to prevent secondary pollution, thereby providing a new solution for biological remediation and control of farmland soil contaminated by antibiotic resistance pathogenic bacteria in China.
