Bacteriophages (phages), discovered 100 years ago, are able to infect and destroy only
bacterial cells. In the current crisis of antibiotic efficacy, phage therapy is considered as a …

The success of phage therapy is dependent on the development of strategies able to
overcome the limitations of bacteriophages as therapeutic agents, the creation of an …

The emerging occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens leads to a recollection
of bacteriophage as antimicrobial therapeutics. This article presents a short overview of the …

Phage therapy was implemented almost a century ago but was subsequently abandoned
when antibiotics emerged. However, the rapid emergence of drug-resistant, which has …

Bacteriophages (phages) are the most abundant and widely distributed organisms on Earth,
constituting a virtually unlimited resource to explore the development of biomedical …

Phage therapy is the application of phages to bodies, substances, or environments to effect
the biocontrol of pathogenic or nuisance bacteria. To be effective, phages, minimally, must …

Since their independent discovery by Frederick Twort in 1915 and Felix d'Herelle in 1917,
bacteriophages have captured the attention of scientists for more than a century. They are …

Antimicrobial resistance is a global health problem and one of the leading concerns in
healthcare sector. Bacteriophages are antibacterial agents ubiquitous in nature. With …

Increasing antimicrobial resistance rates have revitalized bacteriophage (phage) research,
