If the infecting phage is virulent, the infection follows a lytic cycle, or for temperate phages, a lysogenic cycle occurs. Scientists have developed non-personalized and personalized phage therapy ...

Bacteriophages, or phages, viruses that selectively target and infect bacteria, have drawn growing attention for their ...

Depending on the life cycle of the phage, this lysis can occur either soon after the initiation of infection (lytic cycle) or instead following lengthy periods of delay (lysogenic cycle).
