Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Bacteriophage (phage) therapy is a promising anti-infective option to combat antimicrobial resistance. However, the clinical utilization of phage therapy has been severely compromised by the potential emergence of phage resistance. Although certain phage resistance mechanisms can restore bacterial susceptibility to certain antibiotics, a lack of knowledge of phage resistance mechanisms hinders optimal...
