摘要

背景:医院获得性感染(HAIs)显著增加世界范围内的发病率和死亡率,肺炎克雷伯菌(肺炎克雷伯菌)是主要的HAI病原体,需要在医疗机构中有针对性地根除。细菌对化学消毒剂(如氯己定)的耐受性越来越强,迫切需要新的消毒策略。噬菌体利用独特的机制来分解细菌,提供了一个潜在的解决方案。噬菌体与消毒剂联合使用可以减少化学药剂的使用,延缓细菌耐药性的发展。然而,在临床环境中使用噬菌体进行污染控制的探索仍然不足。方法:从医院废水中分离ΦK2046菌株,通过透射电镜、一步生长曲线、最优感染数和稳定性分析对其进行表征。进行全基因组测序以确定ΦK2046的基因组特征。通过生长曲线、时间测定、结晶紫染色和扫描电镜观察ΦK2046联合氯己定的抗菌和抗生物膜作用。建立受污染医疗器械模型,评估ΦK2046-chlorhexidine组合对生物膜的还原效果,并评估不同给药顺序和时间间隔对导尿管生物膜形成的影响。结果:ΦK2046具有潜伏期短、环境稳定性强、安全性好、对氯己定耐受性强等特点,可显著增强氯己定对FK2046的抗菌和抗生物膜作用,减少耐药菌株的出现。在受污染的医疗器械模型中,ΦK2046和氯己定的组合减少了细菌负荷和表面生物膜的形成。“噬菌体优先”给药顺序,特别是在氯己定治疗前间隔90分钟的给药顺序,在生物膜还原方面显示出优越的效果。结论:本研究以ΦK2046为例,论证了噬菌体增强氯己定抗菌和抗生物膜作用的潜力及其在医疗器械消毒中的可行性。这种创新的方法不仅提高了氯己定的消毒能力,而且有效地解决了肺炎克雷伯菌对氯己定的敏感性降低问题。本研究推进了噬菌体消毒剂的开发与应用,为建立具有消毒剂辅助特性的噬菌体文库奠定了基础。

Isolation and identification of Klebsiella pneumoniae phage ΦK2046: optimizing its antibacterial potential in combination with chlorhexidine.

Background: Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) significantly increase morbidity and mortality worldwide, with Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) being a leading HAI pathogen requiring targeted eradication in healthcare settings. The growing bacterial tolerance to chemical disinfectants, like chlorhexidine, highlights an urgent need for novel disinfection strategies. Bacteriophages, which employ unique mechanisms to lyse bacteria, offer a potential solution. Combining phages with disinfectants could reduce the use of chemical agents and delay the development of bacterial resistance. However, the use of phages for contamination control in clinical environments remains underexplored.

Methods: ΦK2046 was isolated from hospital wastewater and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, one-step growth curve, optimal multiplicity of infection, and stability analysis. Whole-genome sequencing was performed to identify the genomic characteristics of ΦK2046. The antibacterial and antibiofilm effects of ΦK2046 combined with chlorhexidine were assessed through growth curves, time-kill assays, crystal violet staining, and scanning electron microscopy. A contaminated medical device model was established to assess the ΦK2046-chlorhexidine combination's biofilm reduction efficacy, and different dosing sequences and timing intervals were evaluated for their impact on biofilms formed on urinary catheters.

Results: ΦK2046, characterized by a short latency period, strong environmental stability, safety, and tolerance to chlorhexidine, significantly enhanced the antibacterial and antibiofilm effects of chlorhexidine against FK2046, and reduce the emergence of resistant strains. In contaminated medical device models, the combination of ΦK2046 and chlorhexidine diminished bacterial load and biofilm formation on surfaces. A "phage-first" dosing sequence, particularly with a 90-min interval before chlorhexidine treatment, showed superior efficacy in biofilm reduction.

Conclusions: This study, using ΦK2046 as an example, demonstrates the potential of phages to enhance the antibacterial and antibiofilm effects of chlorhexidine and their feasibility in medical device disinfection. This innovative approach not only improves chlorhexidine's disinfecting power but also effectively tackles the issue of reduced susceptibility of K. pneumoniae to chlorhexidine. The research advances the development and application of phage-based disinfectants and lays a foundation for establishing a phage library with adjuvant properties for disinfectants.
