This study was designed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of phage-derived endolysin (LysPB32) and depolymerase (DpolP22) against planktonic and biofilm cells of Salmonella Typhimurium (STKCCM). Compared to the control, the numbers of STKCCM were reduced by 4.3 and 5.9 log, respectively, at LysPB32 and LysPB32 + DpolP22 in the presence of polymyxin B (PMB) after 48-h incubation at 37 °C. LysPB32 + DpolP22 decreased the relative fitness (0.8) and the cross-resistance of STKCCM to chloramphenicol (CHL), cephalothin (CEP), ciprofloxacin (CIP), and tetracycline (TET) in the presence of PMB. The MICtrt/MICcon ratios of CHL, CEP, CIP, PMB, and TET were between 0.25 and 0.50 for LysPB32 + DpolP22 in the presence of PMB. These results suggest that the application of phage-encoded enzymes with antibiotics can be a promising approach for controlling biofilm formation on medical and food-processing equipment. This is noteworthy in that the application of LysPB32 + DpolP22 could increase antibiotic susceptibility and decrease cross-resistance to other antibiotics.
