Viruses of protozoan parasites and viral therapy: Is the time now right? (2020)
Journal Article

Infections caused by protozoan parasites burden the world with huge costs in terms of human and animal health. Most parasitic diseases caused by protozoans are neglected, particularly those associated with poverty and tropical countries, but the pauc...

Antibacterial and anti-virulence activity of manuka honey against genetically diverse Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (2020)
Journal Article

Staphylococcus pseudintermedius causes opportunistic infections in dogs. It also has significant zoonotic potential, with the emergence of multidrug-resistance leading to difficulty treating both animal and human infections. Manuka honey has previous...

Reduction of Salmonella contamination on the surface of chicken skin using bacteriophage (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Enteric infections caused by Salmonella spp. remain a major public health burden worldwide. Chickens are known to be a major reservoir for this zoonotic pathogen. The presence of Salmonella in poultry farms and abattoirs is associated wit... Read More about Reduction of Salmonella contamination on the surface of chicken skin using bacteriophage.

An improved cleaning system to reduce microbial contamination of poultry transport crates in the United Kingdom (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Society for Applied Microbiology Aim: Following previous research on improving the cleaning of crates used to transport broiler chickens from the farm to the abattoir, a demonstration project was undertaken to investigate improvements in c...

Dual predation by bacteriophage and bdellovibrio bacteriovorus can eradicate escherichia coli prey in situations where single predation cannot (2020)
Journal Article

Copyright © 2020 Hobley et al. Bacteria are preyed upon by diverse microbial predators, including bacteriophage and predatory bacteria, such as Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus. While bacteriophage are used as antimicrobial therapies in Eastern Europe and...
