This study was designed to evaluate the effect of phage-antibiotic synergy in reducing antibiotic resistance. The initial numbers of treated with ciprofloxacin, phages, and combination were significantly reduced by 3.47, 4.62, and 5.75 log CFU/mL, respectively, at the early 12 h of incubation. The combination treatment most effectively inhibited the growth of , showing more than 4 log reduction in 18 h of incubation at 37°C. The significant reduction in biofilm formation by was observed at the combination treatment (3.91 log). Ciprofloxacin-treated cells became resistant to both ciprofloxacin and phage, showing the mutant frequencies of 27% and 25%, respectively, whereas no antibiotic- and phage-resistant cells were observed at the combined treatment of ciprofloxacin and phages. These results provide useful information for reducing the risk of antibiotic resistance in human and food animals.
本研究旨在评估噬菌体 - 抗生素协同作用在降低抗生素耐药性方面的效果。在培养的最初12小时,用环丙沙星、噬菌体及联合处理的初始菌数分别显著减少了3.47、4.62和5.75 log CFU/mL。联合处理最有效地抑制了[细菌名称未给出]的生长,在37°C培养18小时时显示出超过4 log的减少。联合处理时观察到[细菌名称未给出]生物膜形成显著减少(3.91 log)。用环丙沙星处理的[细菌名称未给出]细胞对环丙沙星和噬菌体均产生耐药性,突变频率分别为27%和25%,而在环丙沙星和噬菌体联合处理时未观察到抗抗生素和抗噬菌体的[细菌名称未给出]细胞。这些结果为降低人和食用动物抗生素耐药性风险提供了有用信息。
