Back flip + number interpreted by PHP as an octal value, how to block it?

Question

I need to reformat a string that may contain the following:

$string = "---8\7----";

The problem is that "\ 7" is interpreted by PHP as an octal value, not just "\" and then "7".

How can I block php from doing this? Of course I need to save '\' Thanks.
