Phage resistance of 225 strains of cholera germs of O1 group obtained from different countries in 1988-1992 has been analyzed. Change of sensitivity to diagnostic phages was mostly connected with the decrease or loss of agglutinability in cholera sera. Phage resistance is rather conditioned by the change of the surface structures of the cell and by further change of phage reception zones. The increase in the number of strains sensitive to diagnostic phages after 6-12 months of storage evidenced for stabilization of cell wall structures and increase of their viability under relatively favourable conditions of storage.

Psychrophilic Pseudomonas fluorescens can secrete extracellular enzymes, biofilms, and other substances even under refrigeration conditions, which have a negative impact on the quality of dairy products, aquatic products, meat products, produce, and other foods, causing food spoilage and huge economic losses. Therefore, strengthening the prevention and control of psychrophilic P. fluorescens in food is of great significance.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is an emerging threat to healthcare settings in many countries, principally in South Asia. The current study was aimed to identify, evaluate whole-genome and characterize the prophages in genome of CRAB strain, recovered from patients of Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. More than 200 samples were collected and identified by morphological and biochemical tests.

Environmental cues sometimes have a direct impact on phage particle stability, as well as bacterial physiology and metabolism, having a profound effect on phage infection outcome. Here, we explore the impact of temperature on the interplay between phage (phiIPLA-RODI) and its host, . Our results show that phiIPLA-RODI is a more effective predator at room (25 °C) compared to body temperature (37 °C) against planktonic cultures of several strains with varying degrees of phage susceptibility.
