Three new highly effective Bacillus anthracis phages were isolated from soil samples, and their complete genomes were sequenced and analyzed and have potential use in future phage therapy treatment against anthrax.
Abstract
ABSTRACT The new highly effective Bacillus anthracis phages Negev_SA, Carmel_SA, and Tavor_SA were isolated from soil samples, and their complete genomes were sequenced and analyzed. The isolated phages have potential use in future phage therapy treatment against anthrax.
