Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria, particularly Klebsiella pneumoniae, represent a significant threat to global health. Given the shortage of new antibiotics, bacteriophages (phages) offer a promising alternative. Understanding bacteria-phage interactions and resistance mechanisms is vital for optimising phage therapy. We aimed to investigate the resistance mechanism of an MDR clinical...
