Phages and phage-encoded proteins exhibit promising prospects in the treatment of Carbapenem-Resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> (CRKP) infections. In this study, a novel <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> phage vB_kpnM_17-11 was isolated and identified by using a CRKP host. vB_kpnM_17-11 has an icosahedral head and a retractable tail. The latent and exponential phases were 30 and 60 minutes, respectively; the burst size was 31.7 PFU/cell and the optimal MOI was 0.001. vB_kpnM_17-11 remained stable ...[more]
