Abstrakt: A recent study conducted in Chungju, South Korea, examined the interaction between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, two bacteria commonly associated with burn wound infections. The researchers focused on the effect of biofilm formation, as well as the impact of phage and phage cocktails on these biofilms. The study found that dual-species biofilms were more loosely associated and more susceptible to the effects of phage and phage cocktails compared to single-species biofilms. This research provides valuable insights into the potential use of phage therapy in treating drug-resistant bacterial infections. [Extracted from the article]
