Phages are viruses that attack bacteria by injecting their DNA, then usurping bacterial machinery to reproduce. Eventually, they make so many copies of themselves that the bacteria burst.

Recently, compared to traditional single liquid delivery drugs, the study of five novel drug delivery systems (i.e., hydrogel, liposomes, electrospun fibers, nanoparticles and nanoemulsion) for phages ...

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 the standards of ...

"Conducting research through the SEA-PHAGES program was the first time in my academic career where I felt what I learned in ...

In an unprecedented workaround, biologist Bryan Hsu's team engineered bacteria-eating viruses called phages to infect and reprogram bacterial cells to produce and release a sustained flowof a ...

Revealing its strategies could boost the fight against antibiotic resistance. Phages are viruses that attack bacteria by injecting their DNA, then usurping bacterial machinery to reproduce.

Phage therapy is one of the alternative treatments. The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize lytic phages of S. aureus from different wastewater sources in Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso.

Childhood obesity has been on the rise in the United States for over a decade, and, according to the American Heart Association (AHA), approximately one in three children and teenagers lives with ...

He made the uncanny cool for a kid like me, whose dollhouse contained a miniature Ouija board in the child’s room and a ghost made of Kleenex and cotton balls in the attic. By Lisa Brown A ...
