Urgent need for Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Morganella morganii phages for a patient in Saudi Arabia

We are urgently seeking Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Morganella morganii phages for a patient in Saudi Arabia. This is a multi-pathogen infection and would be the first phage therapy case in Saudi Arabia.

Ways to help at this stage:

  • By sending your phages for testing on the patient's strains
  • By receiving one or more of the patient's strains and testing your phages
  • By receiving the strain(s) and using it/them to search for new phages
  • By offering to prepare phages supplied by others to clinical grade
  • By helping spread the word about this request
  • By providing us with names/email addresses of labs you think we should contact

Please email staff@phage.directory if you can help in any way, or if you would like further details/clarification.

Let’s make a difference, Phage Directory
