About this trial

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogenic bacteria for human, especially in hospital settings. It can sometimes be multi-resistant to many or even to all antibiotics usually used for its treatment.

The aim of the study is to isolate and produce therapeutic antibodies against the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa in order to provide an alternative treatment to antibiotics in case of infection with an antibiotic-resistant strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
