Biological and genomic characterization of 4 novel bacteriophages isolated from sewage or the environment using non-aureus Staphylococci strains

Veterinary Microbiology
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) are an essential group of bacteria causing antimicrobial resistant intramammary infections in livestock, particularly dairy cows. Therefore, bacteriophages emerge as a potent bactericidal agent for NAS mastitis. This study aimed to obtain NAS-specific bacteriophages using bacterial strains isolated from cows with mastitis,
