Bacteriophages are the most abundant biological entity in the world and hold a tremendous
amount of unexplored genetic information. Since their discovery, phages have drawn a great …

Bacteriophages are the most abundant biological entity on the planet, having pivotal roles in
bacterial ecology, animal and plant health, and in the biogeochemical cycles. Although, in …

Until recently, phages were considered as mere “bacteria eaters” with potential for use in
combating antimicrobial resistance. The real value of phage therapy assessed according to …

Antimicrobial resistance is considered to be one of the greatest challenges of medicine and
our civilization. Lack of progress in developing new anti-bacterial agents has greatly revived …

Advances in genetic engineering, synthetic biology, and DNA sequencing have transformed
the re-emergent therapeutic bacteriophage field. The increasing rate of multidrug resistant …

Along with the excessive use of antibiotics, the emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant
bacteria has become a public health problem and a great challenge vis-à-vis the control and …

Bacteriophages (hence termed phages) are viruses that target bacteria and have long been
considered as potential future treatments against antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection …

Bacteriophages (phages hereafter) are bacterial viruses that were projected, more than a
century ago, to constitute an effective antimicrobial remedy and were widely used as such …

Bacteriophages, which lost out to antibiotic therapy in the past, may be poised to make a
comeback. Once discarded because of their narrow activity spectrum, it can now be viewed …
