Abstract:Members of the Klebsiella oxytoca complex (KoC) are emerging opportunistic pathogens responsible for causing a range of serious infections, especially in healthcare settings. Increasing levels of antimicrobial resistance within the complex could be circumvented by the therapeutic use of lytic bacteriophage to tackle infections caused by KoC members. Here, we report the phenotypic and genomic characterisation of phage vB_KmiS-Kmi2C, a siphovirus-like phage with lytic properties against clinical isolates of the … Show more
