Molecular Studies of Phages- <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> in a Mucoid Environment: Innovative use of mucolytic agents prior to the administration of lytic phages

2023-08-04

Abstract excerpt

Mucins are important glycoproteins that form a protective layer throughout the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. There is scientific evidence of increase in phage-resistance in the presence of mucin for some bacterial pathogens. Manipulation in mucin composition may ultimately influence the effectiveness of phage therapy. In this work, two clinical strains of K. pneumoniae (K3574 and K3325), were exposed t...
