Abstract excerpt
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli (E. coli) at the poultry-human interface motivates evaluating strictly lytic bacteriophages as targeted biocontrol candidates. A lytic E. coli phage (GADS24) was isolated from poultry waste in Saudi Arabia. Plaque formation and host range were assessed against 10 clinical E. coli isolates. Virion morphology was examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM)....
