Abstract excerpt
Phage therapy is increasingly recognised as a potential approach against antibiotic-resistant infections. Analogous to the rise of antibiotic resistance, bacteria can also evolve phage resistance, a process that frequently entails fitness costs. In this study, a new lytic Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage (Henu5) was isolated and characterised. Henu5 was classified within the Caudoviricetes class and displayed good...
