Broad-Host-Range Phages Isolated from Farm Environment Targeting Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Strains
Foodborne diseases impose a considerable global burden, with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) ranking among the leading bacterial pathogens causing severe human disease. Phages represent a promising alternative for STEC control. Since cattle constitute the main reservoir of STEC, in this study, phages...
