A novel lytic phage potentially effective for phage therapy against Burkholderia pseudomallei in the tropics

As the first B. pseudomallei phage was isolated in Hainan, China, phage vBBpPHN01 was characterized by promising lytic property, stability, and efficiency of bacterial elimination during the in vitro/vivo experiments. Therefore, we can conclude that it is a potential alternative agent for combating melioidosis.
