@eiichiikuu: #fyp #edit #viral Bacteriophages (phages) are the most abundant biological agents on Earth, consisting of viruses that exclusively infect and kill specific bacterial species. They feature a protein capsule containing DNA or RNA and replicate via lytic (destroying host) or lysogenic (integrating into host) cycles. Due to their antibacterial nature, they are used in phage therapy as a promising alternative to antibiotics.
