Resistance Evolution against Phage Combinations Depends on the Timing and Order of Exposure
ABSTRACT Phage therapy is a promising alternative to chemotherapeutic antibiotics for the treatment of bacterial infections. However, despite recent clinical uses of combinations of phages to treat multidrug-resistant infections, a mechanistic understanding of how bacteria evolve resistance against...
