The present invention relates to novel bacteriophages specific to Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, and compositions comprising the same. Particularly, polypeptides and their coding nucleic acid molecule of the novel bacteriophages are provided. The invention also relates to applications of the novel bacteriophages and the polypeptides in the detection/treatment/prevention of infection caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. Development of immunogen and vaccine on the basis of the polypeptides are also provided.

Provided is a novel bacteriophage CJ20 (KCCM11362P). In addition, the present invention relates to an antibacterial composition including the bacteriophage CJ20 (KCCM11362P) as an active ingredient. Further, the present invention is a method of preventing and/or treating infectious diseases by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in animals except for humans using the bacteriophage CJ20 (KCCM11362P) or the antibacterial composition containing the bacteriophage CJ20 (KCCM11362P) as an active ingredient.
