Use of artificial sputum medium to test antibiotic efficacy against pseudomonas aeruginosa in conditions more relevant to the cystic fibrosis lung (2012)
Journal Article
Kirchner, S., Fothergill, J., Wright, E., James, C., Mowat, E., & Winstanley, C. (2012). Use of artificial sputum medium to test antibiotic efficacy against pseudomonas aeruginosa in conditions more relevant to the cystic fibrosis lung. Journal of Visualized Experiments, 64, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.3791/3857

There is growing concern about the relevance of in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility tests when applied to isolates of P. aeruginosa from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Existing methods rely on single or a few isolates grown aerobically and plankto...

Differential infection properties of three inducible prophages from an epidemic strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2012)
Journal Article
James, C., Fothergill, J., Kalwij, H., Hall, A., Cottell, J., Brockhurst, M., & Winstanley, C. (2012). Differential infection properties of three inducible prophages from an epidemic strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. BMC Microbiology, 12(216), 1-10. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2180-12-216

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common bacterial pathogen infecting the lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The Liverpool Epidemic Strain (LES) is transmissible, capable of superseding other P. aeruginosa populations and is...
