Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect and kill bacteria. These microscopic predators are found everywhere from soil and water to food and ...

Two new studies have advanced our understanding of bacteriophages or phages, which are viruses that infect bacterial cells. Bacteriophages are crucial organisms that can be found in the gut microbiome ...

The pandemic of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has caused the death of at least 270,000 people as of the 8th of May 2020. This work stresses the potential role of bacteriophages to decrease the ...

Scientists at the University of Leicester have developed a new technique that will turbocharge the use of phages for ...

It sounds like something from an advertisement for bathroom cleaner: Researchers found over 600 different viruses, most of which are new to science, in samples taken from showerheads and toothbrushes.

The microbial arms race, in which bacteria battle with each other, viruses, and other organisms for space and nutrients, has ...

Bacteriophages, or phages for short, are abundant and ubiquitous viruses. They are part of nature and are everywhere, in the air, oceans, soil, and in every living being. In humans, they are ...

Megan Baldridge and her co-workers will use their Global Grant for Gut Health (GGGH) to examine which human proteins interact with bacteriophage viruses in the gut, and how this might trigger ...

New research has discovered that bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) found in the intestinal tracts of children may play a role in childhood stunting, a significant impediment to growth that ...
