Phage resistance accompanies reduced fitness of uropathogenic <i>E. coli</i> in the urinary environment

2021-12-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infections treated worldwide each year and are primarily caused by uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC). Rising rates of antibiotic resistance among uropathogens have spurred consideration of alternative strategies such as bacteriophage (phage) therapy; however, phage-bacterial interactions within the urinary environment are poorly defined. Here...
