faecalis review

Andrei Bolocan and colleagues from APC Microbiome, the University College Cork and the Teagasc Food Research Centre in Ireland have published a new review evaluating the prospects of E. faecalis phage therapy. They've categorized phages with respect to suitability for therapy by looking at in vitro and in vivo potency, characterizing their genomes (including checks for antibiotic resistance genes) and looking at endolysin architecture.
