The recent approval for the use of phages of Listeria monocytogenes for food safety purposes has increased the impetus of phage research to uncover phage-mediated applications with activity against other food pathogens. Bacteriophages: Biology and Applications provides unparalleled, comprehensive information on bacteriophages and their applications, such as phage therapy. We further show that it enables the gradual and independent induction of both AraC and LacI in a simultaneous manner. Oct 10, 2013 - Gill will conduct research on the biology and application of bacteriophages, a group of viruses that preys exclusively on bacteria. This construct will be of direct use for various synthetic biology applications. €�We are pleased to welcome Dr. Jan 6, 2012 - Bacteriophages: Biology and Applications provides unparalleled, comprehensive information on bacteriophages and their applications, such as phage therapy. Feb 15, 2013 - Since the 2009-2010 academic year, four cohorts, each with 13 to 18 first-year Biology and Chemical-Biology students, have participated in Phage Safari. Oct 17, 2008 - This article will review the history of phage discovery, biology, medical uses, advantages and disadvantages, and the likely future of phage therapy. For their potential as biotherapeutic agents. Aureus remains the major causal agent. Nov 15, 1997 - However, there was generally little interaction between those who were so effectively using phage as tools to understand molecular biology and those still working on phage ecology and therapeutic applications. Nov 24, 2013 - This overview summarizes principles of phage biology and their translation for therapeutic and preventive applications. Dec 6, 2010 - Bacteriophages as biocontrol agents Bacteriophages represent one of the most abundant biological entities in nature and have long been recognized for their potential use as therapeutic agents. Aug 18, 2011 - In an advance in understanding Mother Nature's copy machines, motors, assembly lines and other biological nano-machines, scientists are describing how a multipurpose protein on the tail of a virus bores into bacteria like a drill bit, clears the shavings out of the hole and enlarges the hole. Apr 4, 2008 - Although exciting, there are many other uses of phage that are just as revolutionary, but tend to slip by. Jan 2, 2014 - Amongst the wide array of microbes that are able to cause mastitis, Staphylococcus aureus subsp.
