    Abstract The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) has necessitated the development of alternative therapies to deal with this global threat. Bacteriophages (viruses that target bacteria) that kill ARB are one such alternative. Although phages have been used clinically for decades with inconsistent results, a number of recent advances in phage selection, propagation, and purification have enabled a reevaluation of their utility in contemporary clinical medicine. In most phage therapy cases, phages are administered in combination with antibiotics to ensure that patients receive the standard-of-care treatment. Some phages may work cooperatively with antibiotics to eradicate ARB, as often determined using non-standardized broth assays. We sought to develop a solid media-based assay to assess cooperativity between antibiotics and phages to offer a standardized platform for such testing. We modeled the interactions that occur between antibiotics and phages on solid medium to measure additive, antagonistic, and synergistic interactions. We then tested the method using different bacterial isolates and identified a number of isolates where synergistic interactions were identified. These interactions were not dependent on the specific organism, phage family, or antibiotic used.

    Abstract Antibiotic-resistant bacteria present an emerging challenge to human health. Their prevalence has been increasing across the globe due in part to the liberal use of antibiotics that has pressured them to develop resistance. Those bacteria that acquire mobile genetic elements are especially concerning because those plasmids may be shared readily with other microbes that can then also become antibiotic resistant. Serious infections have recently been related to the contamination of preservative-free eyedrops with extensively drug-resistant (XDR) isolates of
