Article Synopsis
  • Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a highly resistant bacteria causing various infections, and phages are seen as a promising alternative to antibiotics for treatment.
  • The study isolated a novel lytic phage, vB_SauP_ASUmrsa123, from sewage and clinical samples, confirming its effectiveness against MRSA using plaque assays and examining its morphology via electron microscopy.
  • Genome sequencing revealed that the phage has a linear dsDNA of approximately 17,155 bp with 24 predicted open reading frames (ORFs), suggesting its potential for targeting MRSA in infections.
