<i>K. pneumoniae</i> ST258 genomic variability and bacteriophage susceptibility

2019-05-05

Abstract excerpt

Multidrug resistant carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae capable of causing severe disease in humans is classified as an urgent threat by health agencies worldwide. Bacteriophages are being actively explored as potential therapeutics against these multidrug resistant pathogens. We are currently developing bacteriophage therapy against carbepenem-resistant K. pneumoniae belonging to the genetically diver...
