Abstract:Background
Salmonella infections continue to be one of the essential public health issues threatening millions of people. With the increasing occurrence of resistance against conventionally used antibiotics, the search for alternatives has become crucial. In this study, we aimed to isolate, characterize, and evaluate two lytic bacteriophages against clinically isolated multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella serovars.
