What Are Bacteriophages?
 

Bacteriophages, or phages, are naturally occurring viruses that infect and kill bacteria. Each phage targets specific bacterial species or strains, making them a powerful tool for studying and controlling harmful bacteria while leaving other microorganisms unaffected.

As antimicrobial resistance continues to rise worldwide, bacteriophages are attracting growing interest for applications in healthcare, food safety, agriculture, research, and industrial bacterial control.
