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.
