An electron micrograph— a photograph taken by means of a transmission electron microscope—of the DT57C bacteriophage. These types of images have been used to obtain a three-dimensional structure of ...

A University of Otago – Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka-led study has produced a detailed blueprint of a bacteriophage, furthering their potential in the fight against drug-resistant bacteria. Lead author Dr ...

Researchers in the Raman Lab at UW recently published a study discussing sending microbes into space at the International Space Station to evaluate how mutations induced by microgravity may impact ...

Researchers who work with bacteriophages -- viruses that eat bacteria -- had a pleasant and potentially very important surprise after treating samples to view under an electron microscope: they had ...

Bacteriophages, or phages for short, are viruses that infect bacteria. Using phages therapeutically could be very useful in fighting antibiotic-resistant pathogens, but the molecular interactions ...

Explore the potential of bacteriophages as a breakthrough therapy against bacterial infections amidst rising antibiotic resistance.
