Investigating the use of bacteriophages as a new decolonization strategy for intestinal carriage of CTX-M-15-producing ST131 Escherichia coli: An in vitro continuous culture system model

Objectives: We investigated the use of bacteriophages as a strategy to decolonize intestinal carriers of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli. Methods: A fermentor was used as a continuous culture system for 48 h. Two different pools of faeces (studies I and II) obtained from volunteers were spiked...
