Determination of phage load and administration time in simulated occurrences of antibacterial treatments

Abstract: The use of phages as antibacterials is becoming more and more common in Western countries. However, a successful phage-derived antibacterial treatment needs to account for additional features such as the loss of infective virions and the multiplication of the hosts. The parameters critical inoculation size (VF) and failure threshold time (TF) have been introduced to assure that the viral dose (Vϕ) and administration time (Tϕ) would lead to the extinction of the targeted bacteria. The problem with the definitio… Show more

“…The biosafety level (BSL) for actual experiments depends mainly on the type of bacterium employed; the most common level would be BSL‐2. The work presented herein is derived from a previous publication (Plunder et al., 2022) that reanalyzed with an in silico approach actual experiments carried out on Escherichia coli (BSL‐2), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (BSL‐2), Azotobacter vinelandii (BSL‐1), Streptococcus mutans (BSL‐2), Limosilactobacillus reuteri (BSL‐1; previously Lactobacillus reuteri ), and the protist Candida albicans (BSL‐2). It is possible to determine the BSL category for bacteria from the website of the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Culture (https://www.dsmz.de).…”
