Mycobacteriophages Exhibit Antibiofilm Activity at High Multiplicities of Infection

2022-08-10

Abstract excerpt

Biofilm formation has been shown to be a very effective survival mechanism used by many bacteria pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). However, unlike other bacteria, mycobacterial biofilms tend to be very rich in lipids, and this accords them much more resilience than their carbohydrate-based counterparts’. Mycobacteriophage therapy, as an up-and-coming technology, is envisaged to revolutionize t...
