Suppression of gut colonization by multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli clinical isolates through cooperative niche exclusion

Abstract excerpt

Human gut colonization by multi-drug resistant Enterobacterales (MDR-E) poses a risk for subsequent infections. Because of the collateral damage antibiotics cause to the microbiota, microbiome-based interventions aimed at promoting decolonization have garnered interest. In this study, we evaluate the strain-specific potential of 430 commensal Escherichia coli isolates to inhibit the growth of an MDR E. coli...
