Abstract excerpt
AIM: Bacteriophages are the most common biological agents that target bacteria, offering a potential alternative to antibiotics for treating multidrug-resistant pathogens, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae. The onset of bacteriophage resistance remains a significant obstacle. This study highlights the role of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in the development of bacteriophage resistance in K. pneumoniae. METHOD: The...
