Isolation and Characterization of Novel Lytic Phages Infecting Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli

Isolation and Characterization of Novel Lytic Phages Infecting Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli

ABSTRACT Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the second most frequent bacterial infections worldwide, with Escherichia coli being the main causative agent. The increase of antibiotic-resistance determinants among isolates from clinical samples, including UTIs, makes the development of novel therapeu...
