Zusammenfassung:A method of selecting a bacteriophage formulation is described wherein the method comprises storing bacterial infection/contamination data at one or more treatment sites in a spatio-temporal infection database, the database comprising at least one of the following data fields: (1) clinical indications, (2) bacterial identification, (3) clinical effects, (4) bacteriophage resistance status, (5) a bacteriophage resistance status, and (6) a bacteriophage resistance status. (5) a bacteriophage susceptibility attribute, (6) an antibiotic susceptibility attribute, and/or (7) a laboratory test result related to any one of (1) to (6); identifying one or more infections associated with the treatment site during the historical period of time by analyzing the data fields (1) to (7) in the database based at least on one or more of the frequency of infections/contamination, geo-clustering of infections/contamination, and/or bacteriophage usage data, thereby identifying one or more bacteriophages suitable for inclusion in
