Phage Isolation & Characterisation

We isolate bacteriophages from natural reservoirs and tailor the process to your specific bacterial strains. Each candidate phage is purified and characterised with care, giving you reliable starting points for research, development, therapeutic, or applied solution exploration.

FAQs

Can you isolate phages for any bacterial strain?

We specialise in the most common antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, but are capable of sourcing phages outside this domain. While some bacteria are more challenging, our experience and combined methodologies allow us to work successfully with even the more difficult targets.

Can I license or buy phages you discover for me?

Yes. Phages identified and confirmed through isolation will be made available according to agreement.

How long does phage isolation take?

Timelines vary depending on the bacterial strain and sample source. Typically, isolation and basic characterisation require a few weeks.
