Advantages and Limitations of Bacteriophages for the Treatment of Bacterial Infections
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019 Bacteriophages (BPs) are viruses that can infect and kill bacteria without any negative effect on human or animal cells. For this reason, it is supposed that they can be used, alone or in combination with antibiotics, to treat bacterial infections.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Bacteriophages are viruses infecting bacterial cells. Since there is a lack of specific receptors for bacteriophages on eukaryotic cells, these viruses were for a long time considered to be neutral to animals and humans.

Interplay between the mechanics of bacteriophage fibers and the strength of virus-host links [PDF]
Physical Review E 89, 052710 (2014), 2021 Viral fibers play a central role in many virus infection mechanisms since they recognize the corresponding host and establish a mechanical link to its surface. Specifically, bacteriophages have to anchor to bacteria through the fibers surrounding the tail before starting the viral DNA translocation into the host.
