DOI: 10.1111/bph.15526
Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a main cause of ventilator‐associated pneumonia (VAP) with drug‐resistant bacteria. Bacteriophage therapy has experienced resurgence to compensate for the limited development of novel antibiotics. However, phage therapy is limited to a compassionate… read more here.

Intestinal Bacteriophage Therapy: Looking for Optimal Efficacy
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Clinical Microbiology Reviews"
DOI: 10.1128/cmr.00136-21
Abstract: Several human intestinal microbiota studies suggest that bacteriophages, viruses infecting bacteria, play a role in gut homeostasis. Currently, bacteriophages are considered a tool to precisely engineer the intestinal microbiota, but they have also attracted considerable… read more here.
