Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci phages panorama: Genomic diversity and in vitro studies for a therapeutic use.

Abstract excerpt

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are commensal bacteria of the human skin and mucosal membranes. The incidence of nosocomial infections caused by these species is on the rise, leading to a potential increase in antibiotic tolerance and resistance. Phages are emerging as a promising alternative to combat CoNS infections. Scientists are isolating phages infecting CoNS with a particular interest in S....
