Prophylactic Phage Therapy Protects Mice Against Oral Salmonella Infection
Researchers at Virginia Tech have successfully developed a prophylactic phage therapy that protects mice from oral infections caused by Salmonella enterica Typhimurium (STm). This innovative approach involves engineering a nonpathogenic Escherichia coli strain that produces bacteriophages specifically targeting STm, thereby enhancing survival rates in mouse models of STm-induced colitis. The study, led by Dr. Bryan…
