PhageLine

Hello and welcome to PhageLine - your line to everything phage.

This week, we will focus on 3D models for mimicking biofilms in diabetic foot ulcers for phage therapy. German researchers from Frankfurt and Jena recently reviewed this topic. The phage lab at the University Hospital Frankfurt was recently featured in Capsid & Tail for having built its own phage laboratory from scratch under very challenging conditions. Have fun!

Hello and welcome to PhageLine - your line to everything phage.

This week, we will focus on the mechanisms of tailed bacteriophage adsorption. For that, we will discuss a review from Storms and Sauvageau from the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering at the University of Alberta, which was published in Elsevier's "Virology" in 2015. Have fun!

Welcome to PhageLine. This week we will focus on using specific phage proteins called endolysins instead of whole phages to fight bacteria by discussing the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of an engineered endolysin targeting Gram-negative pathogens. Have fun!
