[1] In addition to permanently shutting down bacterial metabolism, lysis also releases phage progeny into the surrounding environment, allowing them to infect similar bacteria found nearby.

and dozens or even hundreds of new viral particles—phage progeny—are released. The ongoing arms race between bacteria and phages has resulted in the development of a variety of bacterial ...

But doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital attempted an untested "phage therapy", which uses viruses to infect and kill bacteria. Isabelle is now learning to drive and studying for her A-levels.

The Phage Genomics Lab courses ,sponsored by the HHMI Science Education Alliance, offers introductory biology students an authentic research experience. Students isolate novel bacteriophage from the ...

Phages are viruses that can destroy bacteria. In the 1920s, phage therapies were used widely against infections, but much of the world abandoned the idea following the discovery of penicillin.

Researchers took a water sample from the creek in Coburg North and tested it to establish whether there was phage in the creek. An electron microscopy of the “dangerous Merri lurker”, which ...
