Why We Blend Cultures Against Your Data Instead of Selling Catalogue Items
Why a bacterial culture for industrial effluent has to be selected or blended against your water, what the blend is solving, and what data we need before we can propose one.
Adding a viable microbial population to a system that has lost one, and how that differs from routine process support..

An overview of bacteriophage biology: how phages attach and lyse, why host range is narrow, what a phage library contains, and how phage work differs from antibiotics.
Dosing Bacteria at a Wastewater Plant: How Much, How Often, and How to Know It Worked

Engineered Phages: What a 2025 Review Says About Host Range, Resistance Reversal and Targeted Delivery
A summary of the 2025 peer-reviewed review 'Engineered Phages in Anti-Infection and Anti-Tumor Fields' (Microbial Pathogenesis, PMID 39442821) on host-range engineering, resistance reversal, antigen presentation and targeted delivery, and where 91bio's phage work sits.
Bioaugmentation After a Treatment Plant Shock
