Increasing antimicrobial resistance rates have revitalized bacteriophage (phage) research,
the natural predators of bacteria discovered over 100 years ago. In order to use phages …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that
infects patients with cystic fibrosis, burn wounds, immunodeficiency, chronic obstructive …

Abstract Background Nontuberculous Mycobacterium infections, particularly Mycobacterium
abscessus, are increasingly common among patients with cystic fibrosis and chronic …

Antibiotic resistance is currently one of the greatest threats to human health. Widespread
use and residues of antibiotics in humans, animals, and the environment can exert selective …

Persisters refer to genetically drug susceptible quiescent (non-growing or slow growing)
bacteria that survive in stress environments such as antibiotic exposure, acidic and …

Antibiotic therapy has become increasingly ineffective against bacterial infections due to the
rise of resistance. In particular, ESKAPE pathogens (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus …

Phage therapy is a medical form of biological control of bacterial infections, one that uses
naturally occurring viruses, called bacteriophages or phages, as antibacterial agents …

Resistance threatens to render antibiotics—which are essential for modern medicine—
ineffective, thus posing a threat to human health. The discovery of novel classes of …

Effectively clearing multidrug‐resistant bacteria through nonantibiotic treatments is crucial
for the recovery of infected tissues in favorable biological environments. Herein, a thermally …

Bacteriophages (phages), as natural antibacterial agents, are being rediscovered because
of the growing threat of multi-and pan-drug-resistant bacterial pathogens globally. However …
