PhageLine

Welcome to PhageLine. In this week's episode, we will discuss the isolation and characterization of phages with clinical relevance from environmental sources.

This week's papers are:

1. Isolation of a lytic bacteriophage against extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections and its dramatic effect in rat model of burn infection (Ghaznavi-Rad et al. 2022 JCLA)
2. Isolation and characterization of a lytic bacteriophage against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Sharma et al. 2021 Sci Rep)

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

This podcast is where we discuss exciting research papers on bacteriophages once a week.

To get started let's get a general overview of the topic by talking through a review by Kortright et al. from 2019 (last author Paul E. Turner), titled "Phage Therapy: A Renewed Approach to Combat Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria".
