ICP1 bacteriophage treatment antagonizes colonization of the zebrafish larval intestine by Vibrio cholerae

Key Points

• The study aims to explore the effects of ICP1 bacteriophage on Vibrio cholerae colonization in zebrafish larvae.
• Conducted phage treatment on zebrafish larvae
• Analyzed intestinal colonization by Vibrio cholerae
• Examined phage-bacteria interactions
• Phage treatment significantly reduced colonization levels of Vibrio cholerae in the zebrafish intestine
• Demonstrated important phage-bacteria dynamics affecting pathogen presence
