Bacteriophage therapy for the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections in humanized mice

G. Yi, F. Yang, A. Labani-Motlagh, J. D. Moreira, D. Ansari, J. A. Bohorquez, S. Patel, F. Spagnolo, J. Florence, A. Vankayalapati, R. Vankayalapati, J. J. D. J. Dennehy, B. Samten

This study tests three bacteriophages against Mtb and finds that DS6A effectively kills Mtb in culture and infected macrophages, improving survival and reducing bacterial load in humanized mice.

Risk of Infection Due to Airborne Virus in Classroom Environments Lacking Mechanical Ventilation

A. Goldblatt, M. J. Loccisano, M. I. Mahe, J. J. Dennehy, F. Spagnolo

This study investigates airborne virus transmission in classrooms without mechanical ventilation, finding that humidity significantly reduces transmission rates while distance and UV treatment have minimal impact.
