Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Two Novel Enterobacter Phages With EDTA‐Enhanced Antibiofilm Activity

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Two novel lytic Enterobacter phages, HHH and RZH, displayed targeted antibiofilm activity against MDR Enterobacter cloacae complex biofilms when combined with EDTA. Activity was strongest within a narrow low‐millimolar EDTA window, reducing biofilm biomass and viable burden, while higher EDTA concentrations shifted the interaction towards antagonism ...
