| Abstract | The use of bacteriophages for therapy has increased over the last decade. While there is need for clear regulatory pathways for bacteriophage approval for mainstream use in clinical practice, practitioners and patients have been able to access bacteriophage therapy under compassionate grounds and through magistral preparations. However, there is currently no standard for purifying these bacteriophages to ensure safety, and good manufacturing practice certification may not be achieved in these emergency uses. In this study, we employed an Interleukin Receptor Associated Kinase (IRAK) 3 knockout monocyte-based assay to evaluate the endotoxin removal efficacy of three common bacteriophage purification methods: Triton X-100 exposure, CsCl density gradient ultracentrifugation, and Pierce™ High-Capacity Endotoxin Removal Resin spin columns. In our experiments we tested these purification methods on three different bacteriophage morphotypes: siphovirus, podovirus and myovirus. We showed that the lowest endotoxin levels and immune responses were achieved when purifying bacteriophages with Triton-X treatment. The results from purifying with CsCl density gradient ultracentrifugation were comparable, and these were both significantly better than purification with Pierce™ High-Capacity Endotoxin Removal Resin spin columns. We also showed that Triton X-100 purification resulted in the lowest loss of bacteriophage titres. Finally, of the bacteriophages tested here, it did not appear that virus morphology affected efficacy of endotoxin removal. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
