The Pseudomonas genus is a big problem mainly for the poultry food industry. The shelf life of chicken carcasses stored under refrigeration is limited by the appearance of undesirable odors and sliminess surface generated primarily by Gram negative bacteria. Due to the subsequent emergence of resistant bacteria, is necessary proving new alternatives as guaranty the microbiological quality of fo...

To determine the effectivity of bacteriophages in controlling the mass mortality of striped catfish (Pangasianodonhypophthalmus) due to infections caused by Aeromonas spp. in Vietnamese fish farms, bacteriophages against pathogenic Aeromonashydrophila were isolated. A.hydrophila-phage 2 and A.hydrophila-phage 5 were successfully isolated from water samples from the Saigon River of Ho Chi Minh C...

While the genome sequence determines an organism’s proteins, methylation of nucleotides themselves can confer additional properties. In bacteria, MTs modify specific nucleotide motifs to allow discrimination “self” from “nonself” DNA, e.g., bacteriophages.

Figure 1. Engineered bacteriophages can be assembled into sensitive, specific, and rapid microbial diagnostics. (A) Bacteriophages can be designed to express reporter payloads during specific microbial infection, leading to the production of detectable outputs. (B) Designing synthetic bacteriophages as microbial Synthetic biology is an emerging engineering field focused on designing artificial ...

course of bacteriophage without medical a vie . Although it is impossible to obtain any ie la e information as regards the actual amoun o bacteriophage used in a city such as Calcutta, from certain information that we have been a e gather, it appears that approximate y a million ampoules of bacteriophage are consume annually in Calcutta. The number of firms wno market preparations of bacterioph...

Vertebrate animals possess multiple anti-pathogen defenses. Individual mechanisms usually are differentiated into those that are immunologically adaptive vs. more "primitive" anti-pathogen phenomena described as innate responses. Here I frame defenses used by bacteria against bacteriophages as analogous to these animal immune functions. Included are numerous anti-phage defenses in addition to t...
