A novel chimeric endolysin with enhanced lytic and binding activity against Clostridium perfringens

2023-04-17

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium perfringens is a gram-positive, anaerobic, and spore-forming bacterium that produces toxins causing various diseases in humans and livestock animals. With the growth in antibiotic resistance, finding alternative biocontrol agents against C. perfringens is necessary for food safety and animal health. Here, we isolated a C. perfringens-infecting bacteriophage CPD9 and characterized its endolysin LysCPD9....
