Isolation, genomic characterization, and biocontrol potential of a bacteriophage cocktail against Staphylococcus aureus in milk.
The objectives of this study were to isolate, characterize, and evaluate the biocontrol potential of Staphylococcus aureus-targeting bacteriophages in milk. From wastewater and raw milk samples, a total of 19 lytic phages were isolated. Among them SAKAY1298 and SAKAY1306 phages were selected for detailed phenotypic and...
