PhagED: a molecular toolkit to re-sensitise ESKAPE pathogens

Model: References

During the development of our model we used an extensive list of scientific literature on the topic of bacteria-phage interactions. The list presented below includes nearly all available literature on this topic up until August 2017. We hope this will serve as a good resource for anyone who wants to tap into this fascinating topic.
