Bacteriophages and antibiotic interactions in clinical practice: what we have learned so far
Journal of Biomedical Science, 2022 Bacteriophages (phages) may be used as an alternative to antibiotic therapy for combating infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. In the last decades, there have been studies concerning the use of phages and antibiotics separately or in ...

Bacteriophage-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are resensitized to antimicrobials
Nature Microbiology, 2021 We characterized two bacteriophages, ΦFG02 and ΦCO01, against clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii and established that the bacterial capsule is the receptor for these phages.
