Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are opportunistic pathogens commonly found in biofilm-associated polymicrobial respiratory infections that are challenging to control. Studies performed in laboratory standard conditions suggest that bacterio(phages) and antibiotic combinations are more active against bacterial communities and biofilms than each agent alone. The purpose of this work was to study the antibacterial efficacy of phage-antibiotic combinations using an in vivo-like three-dimensional lung epithelial model that mimics aspects of the parental tissue, colonized by a mixed ...
