Background: Acinetobacter baumannii, particularly carbapenem-resistant strains (CRAB), poses a major concern in the fight against antimicrobial resistance (AMR), identified as a top-priority pathogen by the World Health Organization (WHO). A. baumannii has intrinsic resistance to several antibiotics, including penicillin, cephalosporins, chloramphenicol, and fosfomycin, but the development of AMR has led to the emergence of extremely drug-resistant and pan-resistant isolates.

Topical antibiotic application and occlusive dressings stand as the current standard of care for partial thickness burn (PTB) treatment. Silver sulfadiazine (SSD) is the most widely used topical antimicrobial agent for acute burn management worldwide. Despite its antimicrobial benefits, there is emerging evidence that SSD might delay wound reepithelialization.

The Enterobacter cloacae complex, a prominent bacterium responsible worldwide for most bloodstream infections in the hospital environment, has shown broad-spectrum antibiotic resistance, including carbapenems. Therefore, bacteriophages have again attracted the attention of the science and medical community as an alternative to control Multidrug resistant bacteria. In this study, water samples from Río Abajo River, in Panama City, Panama, were collected, for phage isolation, purification, characterization and propagation against the E.

Antimicrobial Resistance poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Microorganisms develop multi-drug resistance due to intrinsic factors, evolutionary chromosomal alterations, and horizontal gene transfer. , a common nosocomial bacterium, can cause various infections and is classified as multidrug-resistant.
