Phage Host Range Expansion Through Directed Evolution on Highly Phage-Resistant Strains of <em>Klebsiella</em> <em>pneumoniae</em>
2025-07-04
Abstract excerpt
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae present an acute threat as they continue to disseminate globally. Phage therapy has shown promise as a powerful approach to combat MDR infections, but narrow phage host ranges make development of broad acting therapeutics more challenging. The goal of this effort was to use in vitro directed evolution (the “Appelmans protocol”) to isolate K. pneumoniae pha...
