Phage therapy, the therapeutic usage of viruses to treat bacterial infections, has many
theoretical benefits in the 'post antibiotic era.'Nevertheless, there are currently no approved …

Bacteriophages are more abundant than any other organism on our planet. The interaction
of bacteriophages and bacteria and their coevolution is well known. In this chapter, we …

Metagenomics has changed the face of virus discovery by enabling the accurate
identification of viral genome sequences without requiring isolation of the viruses. As a …

Phage therapy is the use of bacteriophages as antimicrobial agents for the control of
pathogenic and other problem bacteria. It has previously been argued that successful …

Following a sixty-year hiatus in western medicine, bacteriophages (phages) are again being
advocated for treating and preventing bacterial infections. Are attempts to use phages for …

The spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria is a global public health crisis.
Bacteriophage therapy (or “phage therapy”) constitutes a potential alternative approach to …

The clinical (re) development of bacteriophage (phage) therapy to treat antibiotic-resistant
infections faces the challenge of understanding the dynamics of phage-bacteria interactions …

The application of bacteriophages as antibacterial agents has many benefits in the “post-
antibiotic age”. To increase the number of successfully targeted bacterial strains, phage …

Phage therapy is the use of bacterial viruses (phages) to treat bacterial infections, a medical
intervention long abandoned in the West but now experiencing a revival. Currently …

The canonical lytic–lysogenic binary has been challenged in recent years, as more
evidence has emerged on alternative bacteriophage infection strategies. These infection …
