Potential of an Isolated Bacteriophage to Inactivate <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>: Preliminary Studies to Control Urinary Tract Infections

Potential of an Isolated Bacteriophage to Inactivate <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>: Preliminary Studies to Control Urinary Tract Infections

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> can lead to severe clinical complications and even death. An alternative treatment option for infected patients is using bacteriophages. In the present study, we isolated phage VB_KPM_KP1LMA (KP1LMA) from se...
