Abstract

Malaysia mempunyai kepelbagaian faj yang luas yang masih belum diterokai daripada segi aplikasi dan ini termasuk terapi faj untuk merawat bakteria yang merintang kesan antibiotik. Dalam kajian ini, tiga faj iaitu pPM_01, pEC_02 dan pEC_03 masingmasing khusus kepada Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli O157:H7 dan Escherichia coli ATCC 13706 telah berjaya dipencilkan dari loji rawatan kumbahan mentah di Batu Maung, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia has a huge untapped phage diversity with potential applications, including a phage therapy that treats antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, three phages namely, pPM_01, pEC_02 and pEC_03 specific to Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Escherichia coli ATCC 13706 respectively, were successfully isolated from a raw sewage treatment facility in Batu Maung, Penang, Malaysia.
