I am suffering from osteomyelitis caused by Pseudomonas bacteria. It's in my calcaneus. Waiting for another surgery while on Cipro who is not working. It is bad. Really bad. I don't have diabetes but I did have radiation therapy a long time ago. I feel that phage is the only option for me but how to get it?
I remember when Bacteriophage study was just coming of age in the mid 70s in grad school! Prof talked about their potential. Great that they are now being studied for their anti bacteria properties.

As someone who has been to Tbilisi (Eliava) 3 times for failed treatment, I can attest that bacteria can quickly evolve (membrane) to thwart the attachment of phages and also retain antibiotic resistance. To avoid this - a cocktail of 5 or more phages that target the bacteria is needed.
Very interesting. Two questions: 1.Do these phages naturally use the pumps as a entry receptors. 2. Is there a chance that the bacteria mutate such that the pump remains active but no longer works as a phage receptor? Thanks very much in advance.
@@hans-petermuller4771 Just like how bat studies for coronaviruses was 'unlikely or impossible' to spread to humans because it used receptors humans don't have. Or 3 days ago a research lab in Guanzhou has had 3 workers die suddenly due to an infectious cancer which should not be possible as cancers are not infectious.
Love that this is a sponsored video that pops up with searching “mycoplasma pneumonia” haha. I anticipate that this video is about to become very popular. It’s going to be a rough winter.

Maybe in some instances. But scientists have found that phages already live in humans as part of our “virome” (micro biome) so to speak. Where there is bacteria, there are likely phages somewhere nearby.
So much information except the info we need . How in the hell can I get my hands on phages. My girlfriend is dying. At the rate the bacteria is growing in her she doesn't stand a chance if I don't know where to get the phages we need.
It's short for "bacteriophage" (or "bacteria-eater"), the kinds of viruses that specifically infect bacteria It is a bit silly because that means we're just calling them "eaters," but oh well-etymology often falls between the cracks of language!
@@davidbahry9092 i mean every virus eats bacteria by definition. seems like just a fancier word which implies tryna be fancy for no good reason. aw well
@@SteveHazel every virus attacks cells, but not every virus attacks bacteria! E.g. the smallpox virus only attacked human cells; different kinds of influenza viruses attack different mammal and/or bird cells; etc.
where can buy this please share sir.Im an AMR ive been taking a lots of anbiotic since august because of uti and i still have until now it keeps coming back.
@@rodrigomelendez1545 phage therapy was actually invented before antibiotics! It fell out of use in the Western world when antibiotics were discovered, but former USSR countries kept the tradition alive, especially at the Eliava Institute in Tbilisi, Georgia Fun fact: America's first Nobel Prize in Literature was for a 1925 novel about a doctor who independently discovers phage therapy ("Arrowsmith")
@@rodrigomelendez1545 i understand what he means and a few google search said this phages are being used in Soviet Union countries ie Russia and the Eastern Bloc because the west denies them antibiotics for political reasons so they use viruses these to kill bacteria in the body to cure illness and on the special occasions they are being used there
@@rodrigomelendez1545The Soviet Union and its states used to use phage therapy as a common way to treat illness until mass production antibiotics was available to them,for Georgia,though they also use antibiotics,but phage therapy is still a common method of treatment,you can even find phage paste for open wounds there

Shout out to Dr. Pollenz and the sea phages program at USF!
Very interesting. Two questions:
1.Do these phages naturally use the pumps as a entry receptors.
2. Is there a chance that the bacteria mutate such that the pump remains active but no longer works as a phage receptor?
Thanks very much in advance.
Or what if phages mutate and gain the ability to infect mammalian cells?
This is extremely unlikely or impossible because the respective host cells differ in many ways.
@@bioquimica_animal There is already virus very adapted to infecting human cells ^^ Phage are too specialized into specific species of bacterias.

Use for EEE?
Can't wait to see this video!!! T___T
We can't wait for you to see it!
What are the side effects of using phages in humans?
Side effects are eliminating one specific species of bacteria from a persons body.
Please upload more often 😅

Problem is it will quit working the moment your body is immune system starts attacking the virus that is killing the bacteria

why do ya call em phages instead of viruses?

This is MEGA funny to pretend this is innovative when Georgia has been doing this since the 1920ies lol.
