> hospital would have to store thousands of different phages to be able to treat most of it's patients and it would have to replace those stores twice a week Couldn’t you create a few compound batches that treat sets of bacteria, balancing distribution cost and side effects? Do that a little, remove phages that don’t work better than antibiotics, tailor for local conditions and I doubt you’re adding more than a few dozen medicines to the hospital’s inventory. > shelf life is very very short. A couple of days probably Plenty can survive cryogenic suspension [1]. [1] https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3131515/ |
