Depending on the life cycle of the phage, this lysis can occur either soon after the initiation of infection (lytic cycle) or instead following lengthy periods of delay (lysogenic cycle).

When multiple phages attached themselves to a bacterial cell, fewer of them were able to even enter the cell, let alone cause lysis. “Our data shows that the first stage of infection ...

After entering, a phage can either force the cell to produce more phages and eventually explode, a process called cell lysis, or the phage can integrate its genome into the bacterial one and ...

Although the advent and mass production of antibiotics caused a decline in phage therapy, the recent rise in antibiotic resistance has renewed the global interest in this line of treatment. In this ...

Through a combination of high bacterial respiration and phage lysis, a continuous supply of terrestrial DOC was lost from the aquatic ecosystem in a CO₂-vented bacterial–viral loop. Bacterial ...

"Using automated particle tracking, we calculate the 'dwell time'—or the time that a phage spends interacting ... focal view visibly undergo lysis. Credit: Proceedings of the National Academy ...

Berlin, Germany – April 7, 2025 — With antimicrobial resistance rising as one of the world's most pressing health threats, the 8th World Congress on Targeting Phage Therapy 2025 will bring ...

This kit utilizes a rapid spin column method to purify total DNA from a wide range of bacteriophages cultured in liquid-grown bacteria. Phenol, chloroform, or cesium chloride banding techniques ...
