Popis: We here present detailed descriptions of successful treatment of a series of diabetic toe ulcers using the Eliava BioPreparations' commercial preparation of the very well-studied anti-staphylococcal bacteriophage Sb-1. This chapter outlines what we feel is an appropriate mechanism to speed movement toward full-scale clinical trials with bacteriophage use to treat wound infections and to help address the crisis in antibiotic resistance.
