Abstract:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is increasing at an escalating rate with few new therapeutic options in the pipeline. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most prevalent bacterial infections globally and are particularly prone to becoming recurrent and antibiotic resistant. The aim of this study was to discover and characterise new bacterial viruses (phage) against uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), which is the leading cause of UTIs. Six phages from the Autographiviridae family and Guernseyvirina… Show more
