Jun 14, 2011 - Phage are highly specific to their target bacteria and are harmless to any other cells, or non‐targeted bacteria. Jan 2, 2014 - Amongst the wide array of microbes that are able to cause mastitis, Staphylococcus aureus subsp. Aureus remains the major causal agent. Deliberately breaking with the classical biology-centered description of marine organisms and their products, this reference emphasizes microbial technology over basic biology, setting it apart from its predecessors. Throughout, the 9 Marine Bacteriophages for the Biocontrol of Fish and Shellfish Diseases 161. The remaining four parts look at commercially important compounds produced by these microorganisms together with their applications. Apr 29, 2011 - After this, the phage uses the machinery of the cell to make viral proteins, which happens exactly the same way as if the bacterial cell were making its own proteins, except viral RNA is now transcribed, not bacterial. Levin, B., Bull, J., “Phage Therapy Revisited: The Population Biology of a Bacterial Infection and its Treatment with Bacteriophage Antibiotics,” The American Naturalist. The phage DNA/RNA and capsids assemble, . Mar 26, 2014 - Biology sophomore Melody Vo said this year's sample includes an arthrobacter phage, a virus specializing in a different bacteria genus. Though “This is a growing field, and what we're researching has a lot of applications.”.
