Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Cystic fibrosis (CF) patients have reduced mucociliary clearance resulting in recurring and chronic bacterial lung infections. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common pathogens to colonize the airways of CF patients and can persist in the lungs for decades.
