This study identifies 34 phage tail-like bacteriocins (PTLBs) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa genomes, with some showing strong antimicrobial activity against bacterial infections.

This study develops and tests phage therapy medical products (PTMPs) against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST512 strains, showing partial efficacy and the need for antibiotic combination.

The paper develops a LAMP-CRISPR-Cas13a technique to detect bacterial anti-phage defence systems and assesses the role of quorum sensing in phage resistance.

This study investigates how cinnamaldehyde inhibits quorum sensing in K. pneumoniae to reduce phage resistance by proteomic analysis and infection assays.

This study shows that mucin promotes phage resistance in K. pneumoniae, but mucolytic agents like NAC reduce this resistance, suggesting their potential use in phage therapy.

The paper analyzes 50 temperate bacteriophages from carbapenemase-producing E. coli isolates, classifying them into viral families and identifying functional features and potential plasmid-like properties.
