In Vitro Design of a Novel Lytic Bacteriophage Cocktail with Therapeutic Potential Against Organisms Causing Diabetic Foot Infections

In patients with diabetes mellitus, foot infections pose a significant risk. These are complex infections commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii, all of which are potentially susceptible to bacteriophages. Here, we characterized five bacteriophag...
