Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure include methods of treating, preventing, reducing the risk of, delaying the onset of, and/or reducing the severity of an infection (including pathogenic) in an individual infected with a bacteria from the Gammaproteobacteria Class. In specific embodiments, the methods comprise the step of administering to the individual an effective amount of an immunogenic composition comprising a non-acylated/inactive form alphahemolysin (HlyA) and/or a non-acylated/inactive form, or functional fragment(s) of either. In specific embodiments, the individual is also provided a composition comprising SinH or a functional fragment thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions, devices, kits, and methods for treatment of Enterobacteriaceae infection. Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to bacteriophage compositions comprising one or more of ES17, ES19, HP3, HP3.1, and HP3.2. Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to compositions comprising (a) bacteriophage ES17 or bacteriophage ES19, (b) bacteriophage HP3, and (c) bacteriophage HP3.1. Also disclosed are compositions comprising bacteriophage HP 3.2. Further disclosed are devices and kits comprising such compositions and methods for use of such compositions in treatment and prevention of pathogenic E. coli infection.

Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides a method of generating bacteriophages adapted to infect a target bacterial strain. The method comprises: providing host bacteria that are susceptible to phage as input to a host chemostat containing phage; providing target bacteria that are related to the host bacteria, but not susceptible to phage as input to a target chemostat containing phage; filtering outflows from the host chemostat and the target chemostat to isolate phage from the populations of the host bacteria, the target bacteria, and macromolecules; combining the outflows; and introducing the combined outflow into each of the host chemostat and the target chemostat.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions, devices, kits, and methods for prevention and/or treatment of Staphylococcus infection. In specific embodiments, Staphylococcus are S. pseudintermedius and/or S. aureus. Aspects of the present disclosure can be directed to bacteriophage compositions comprising one or more of vB_SpsM-DH2, vB_SpsS-DH5, and/or vB_SpsM-DS10. Further disclosed are devices and kits comprising such compositions, and methods for use of such compositions in treatment and prevention of pathogenic Staphylococcus infection.
