Characterizing the bacteriophage PKp-V1 as a potential treatment for ESBL-producing hypervirulent K1 Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 isolated from veterinary specimens
Although the incidence of ESBL-infected <i>K. pneumoniae</i> in veterinary settings is worrisome, PKp-V1 phages showed considerable lytic action against the host bacterium, indicating the potential of PKp-V1 as a possible alternative therapeutic option against MDR <i>K. pneumoniae</i>.
