From: Chitosan nano-formulation enhances stability and bactericidal activity of the lytic phage HK6
Time-killing curves for E. cloacae by phage only (
), CS-NPs (
) only and phage encapsulated CS-NPs (
) and Non- treated bacterial cultures as a positive control (
), viable cells were counted over 24Â h. Show that bacteriophage encapsulated CS-NPs exhibited significant and rapid antibacterial activity within 2Â h post-exposure. Activity was markedly superior compared to that of bacteriophage or CS-NPs alone
