A panel of bacteriophages comprising a first vir mutant bacteriophage capable of infecting and lysing a first strain of bacteria, and a second vir mutant capable of infecting and lysing a second strain of bacteria. A pharmaceutical composition including a panel of bacteriophages disclosed above. A method of identifying a bacteriophage suitable for killing a bacterium by obtaining a sample of the bacterium from a patient or site infected with the bacterium, identifying one or more phage sensitivity characteristics of the bacterium, comparing the characteristics from the identification step with the known host range of each library of bacteriophages, the library of bacteriophages including a first vir mutant bacteriophage capable of infecting and lysing a first strain of bacteria, and a second vir mutant capable of infecting and lysing a second strain of bacteria, and identifying one or more bacteriophages from the panel suitable for killing the bacterium.

L'invention concerne une palette de bactériophages comprenant un premier bactériophage mutant vir pouvant infecter et lyser une première souche de bactéries, ainsi qu'un second mutant vir pouvant infecter et lyser une seconde souche de bactéries. L'invention se rapporte également à une composition pharmaceutique contenant une palette de bactériophages. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé permettant d'identifier un bactériophage pouvant détruire une bactérie. Ce procédé consiste à : obtenir un échantillon de la bactérie, provenant du patient ou d'un site infecté par la bactérie ; identifier une ou plusieurs caractéristiques de lyso-sensibilité de cette bactérie ; comparer les caractéristiques de l'étape d'identification avec la gamme d'hôtes connus de chaque bactériophage de la bibliothèque de bactériophages, cette bibliothèque de bactériophages comprenant un premier bactériophage mutant vir pouvant infecter et lyser une première souche de bactéries ainsi qu'un second mutant vir pouvant infecter et lyser une seconde souche de bactéries ; et identifier un ou plusieurs bactériophages de la palette pouvant détruire ladite bactérie.
