#microber2023 #inktober2022 Light: phage therapy offers a “light at the end of the tunnel” when faced with the antibiotic apocalypse. Phages can treat and kill these potentially life-threatening antimicrobial-resistant infections and save lives. #SciArt #phage
#Microber2022 #inktober2022 18 Metal: metal ions such as calcium or magnesium chloride can be crucial to phage-host binding and hence reproduction. Forgetting the metal can lead to really disappointing results. #phage #SciArt
#PortfolioDay I'm Ellie and I like drawing microbes, particularly bacteria and #phage! #SciArt
#Microber2021 day 7 - Phage Phages or bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. Our bacterium friend is in a risky situation.. as it looks like these phages are ready to infect it and use it to reproduce themselves throughout the lytic cycle. #sciart #phage #inktober2021
Spirit #inktober2021, inspired by the throw-away plastic atrocity of a non-existent spider skeleton my brain dragged me down the route of imagining a phage skeleton (phages are really just protein wrapped nuclei acid). #phage #Halloween #SciArt twitter.com/jamesbeaumont2…
"Crystal biofilm" #inktober2021, combining the standard and microbiology prompts! The temperate Pseudomonas phage Pf can help its host survive by forming a liquid crystal, making biofilms nearly impenetrable to antibiotics ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… #Phage #SciArt
