TL;DR: In this article, two bacteriophages, ΦFG02 and ΦCO01, were characterized against clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii and established that the bacterial capsule is the receptor for these phages.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that phages can be used not only for their lytic activity but, if combined with a posteriori knowledge of their receptors and the mechanism of bacterial resistance, for their potential synergy with other antimicrobial agents, thus providing even broader clinical options for phage therapy.
