Characterization of novel<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>lytic phage and defining their combinatorial virulence using the OmniLog® system
2 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI) caused by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are difficult to treat. Bacteriophage (phage) represent a potential alternate treatment for antibiotic resistant bacterial infections. In this study, 7 novel phage with broad lytic activity for S. aureus were isolated and identified. Screening of a diverse collection of 170 clinical isolates by efficiency of...
