The researchers are at the same time examining the use of this \u2018phage therapy\u2019 against <em>Campylobacter<\/em> in wastewater, because more is known about the bacteriophages that infect <em>Campylobacter.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>In an Exploratory Research project of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kwrwater.nl\/samenwerkingen\/bedrijfstakonderzoek-voor-waterbedrijven\/\">Joint Research Programme-WiCE<\/a> programme, KWR and STOWA are researching the extent to which bacteriophages that infect <em>L.<\/em>\u00a0<em> pneumophila<\/em> can be used as phage therapy to control this bacterium in warm side streams. To begin with, the researchers aim to isolate the bacteriophages capable of infecting the bacterium. Subsequently, under laboratory conditions, they will study whether the isolated bacteriophages are capable of killing <em>L. pneumophila <\/em>in pure cultures and in wastewater. Since the <em>Legionella <\/em>bacteriophages are barely described in the scientific literature, the researchers are simultaneously taking the same approach to examine whether phage therapy can be used to control <em>Campylobacter <\/em>in wastewater. Bacteriophages that infect <em>Campylobacter <\/em>are particularly well described in the literature, and are in fact already being successfully applied as phage therapy in other ecosystems.<\/p>\n<h2>Bacteriophages<\/h2>\n<p>At a time when the SARS-CoV-2 virus has the world in its grip, one might almost forget that there are also viruses that are welcome; viruses that do not infect humans, animals or plants, but actually attack pathogenic bacteria. These viruses are called bacteriophages, and the bacterial cells that they infect die. This could offer a possible alternative to antibiotics. In the past, particularly in the former Soviet Union, research was carried out into phage therapy: the use of bacteriophages to kill pathogenic bacteria. Interest in phage therapy has recently revived because infections caused by antibiotic resistant bacteria cannot always be effectively treated with antibiotics, but they might be susceptible to specific bacteriophages. But phage therapy could possibly <em>also<\/em> be used to control undesirable bacteria in aquatic environments.<\/p>\n<h2>Legionella outbreaks in wastewater treatment<\/h2>\n<p>In recent years there have been a few small outbreaks of <em>L. pneumophila <\/em>caused by warm side streams in wastewater treatment processes. \u00a0Surveys also show that this bacterium can be present in relatively high numbers in such wastewater treatment processes. Given that many of the common control measures kill <em>all <\/em>bacteria, they cannot be used, since it is the other bacteria present in wastewater streams that actually treat the wastewater. Currently, the response frequently involves covering up the treatment tanks in which large numbers of <em>L. pneumophila <\/em>have been detected, thus preventing any aerosols from getting into the air and potentially spreading the bacterium. This measure is however very costly.<\/p>\n<h2>Participants for supervisory group<\/h2>\n<p>The phage therapy research was recently launched and will run through to the end of 2021. At the moment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stowa.nl\/nieuws\/community-practice-legionella\">STOWA\u2019s <em>Legionella<\/em> Community of Practice<\/a> forms the project supervisory group, but interested persons from the drinking water utilities would also be welcome.
