Abstract

Correctly designed bacteriophage therapeutics are the cornerstone for a successful outcome of bacteriophage therapy. Here we overview strategies on how to choose bacteriophages and their bacterial hosts at different steps of a bacteriophage cocktail development in order to comply with all quality and safety requirements based on the already existing essentially empirical experience in bacteriophage therapy and current accomplishments in modern biomedical sciences. A modification of the classic Appelmans' method (1922) to assess stability of bacteriophage activity in liquid media is presented in order to improve the overall performance of therapeutic bacteriophages individually and collectively in the cocktail.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 May 2023.
All research outputs
#3,387,295
of 24,171,511 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#740
of 13,620 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#63,283
of 335,405 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#3
of 42 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,171,511 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,620 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 335,405 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 42 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
