#Industrial #microbiology is a highly interesting topic of #EUROmicroMOOC (in fact all are highly interesting! 😀). Did you know what #microorganisms do besides being pathogenic? #welovemicrobiology #MicroMol

Carefully use #antibiotics and help us detecting #bacteriophages as an important #alternative against #multiresistant #bacteria. We welcome any sample of wet material from special, non-everyday areas (such as mud from the rainforest).

Was a great evening being #teacher at #EUROmicroMOOC. Who missed the training can read it at wakelet.com/@SEMicrobiolog… #Microbiology is great!

Want to learn how to work with #Phages? Let us meet at the 4th International hands-on PHAGE BIOTECHNOLOGY course in Braga-Portugal. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2ofh8EA

The world first prospective multicentric, randomised, single blinded and controlled clinical trial of #phage therapy ever performed according to GMP and GCP ended in 2017. Phage community is looking forward to see the results. #MicroMol #EUROmicroMOOC phagoburn.eu

#Phage therapeutical preparations require rigorous #biosafety assessment. Parameters like #microbial #purity, #cytotoxicity, #pyrogenicity, #identity, #host range and #stability must be tested before use on patients. #MicroMol #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2CcuBXI

The #phage phiX174 was the first "organism" to have its entire nucleotide sequence determined, a feat that was accomplished by Frederick Sanger and colleagues in 1977. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2wAmUEv

In 1943 Luria and Delbrück in their famous experiment using #phage T1 and E. coli cultures proved that genetic mutations arise in the absence of selection, rather than being a response to selection. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2PTFaBB

"Virus burst size” is a term describing the number of released virions from single bacterial cell after lysis. Usually about 100 - 1000 phages are produced in a single cell. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2wAvJ0T

To avoid overkilling of their host #Phages communicate via small proteins that are discharged during lysis of the #bacteria . With increasing concentrations phages become lysogen instead of lytic, what helps stabilizing the bacterial culture. #MicroMol #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC"

Researchers have found that some #Phages can communicate. They produce and sense chemical signals and thus can decide whether to kill or keep their hosts alive. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC go.nature.com/2MS5QnM

Scientists use the #CRISPR mechanism to cut and modify any genome in the lab. The European Court of Justice ruled resulting organisms in July 2018 as genetically modified. #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC bit.ly/2BQHfeJ

#CRISPR is a bacterial immune mechanism against #Phage contamination. Bacterial cells that survived an infection keep the genetic information of the intruder to later recognize and precisely cut the phage DNA #MicroMol #Tentamus #Laboratory #EUROmicroMOOC doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…
