Effects of orally administered Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus on the well-being and Salmonella colonization of young chicks. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 77(16), https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.00426-11

Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is a bacterium which preys upon and kills Gram-negative bacteria, including the zoonotic pathogens Escherichia coli and Salmonella. Bdellovibrio has potential as a biocontrol agent, but no reports of it being tested in livi...

Bacteriophage therapy to reduce Salmonella colonization of broiler chickens (2007)
Journal Article
Atterbury, R. J., Van Bergen, M., Ortiz, F., Lovell, M., Harris, J., De Boer, A., …Barrow, P. (2007). Bacteriophage therapy to reduce Salmonella colonization of broiler chickens. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 73(14), https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.00049-07

Acute enteric infections caused by salmonellas remain a major public health burden worldwide. Poultry, particularly chickens, are known to be the main reservoir for this zoonotic pathogen. Although some progress has been made in reducing Salmonella c... Read More about Bacteriophage therapy to reduce Salmonella colonization of broiler chickens.

Bacteriophage therapy to reduce Campylobacter jejuni colonization of broiler chickens (2005)
Journal Article
Loc Carrillo, C., Atterbury, R. J., El-Shibiny, A., Connerton, P. L., Dillon, E., Scott, A., & Connerton, I. F. (2005). Bacteriophage therapy to reduce Campylobacter jejuni colonization of broiler chickens. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 71(11), https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.71.11.6554-6563.2005

Colonization of broiler chickens by the enteric pathogen Campylobacter jejuni is widespread and difficult to prevent. Bacteriophage therapy is one possible means by which this colonization could be controlled, thus limiting the entry of campylobacter...

Correlation of Campylobacter bacteriophage with reduced presence of hosts in broiler chicken ceca (2005)
Journal Article

Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter-specific bacteriophage were enumerated from broiler chicken ceca selected from 90 United Kingdom flocks (n = 205). C. jejuni counts in the presence of bacteriophage (mean log10 5.1 CFU/g) were associated with a...

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 69(10), https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.69.10.6302-6306.2003

Retail poultry products are widely purported as the major infection vehicle for human campylobacteriosis. Numerous intervention strategies have sought to reduce Campylobacter contamination on broiler carcasses in the abattoir. This study reports the...

The ability of phages to survive processing is an important aspect of their potential use in the biocontrol of Campylobacter in poultry production. To this end, we have developed a procedure to recover Campylobacter bacteriophages from chilled and fr...
