Abstract
. EATPs also significantly suppressed the antibiotic resistance caused by a highly antibiotic-resistant PA14 infection, which may provide novel insight toward developing bacteriophages to treat patients with intractable bacterial infections, especially infections by clinically MDR bacteria that are unresponsive to conventional antibiotic therapy.
