Fatty Acids Synergize with Bacteriophages Against Multidrug-Resistant Pathogens

Kayla R Raygoza, Andrew Saghir, Yu Chen…·Sage J. B. Dunham

This study shows that medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) enhance phage efficacy against multidrug-resistant bacteria by disrupting bacterial envelopes and preventing phage resistance.
