Phage therapy: An overview of the features, challenges, and possibilities as an alternative to antibiotics


Author(s): Anderson Luiz Pena da Costa and Rafael Lima Resque

Abstract: Antibiotic resistance is a public health concern that jeopardizes the efficacy of these therapies with these drugs and raises the possibility of epidemic events involving the emergence and re-emergence of infectious diseases whose treatments can be delicate or ineffective. As a result, this public health issue necessitates the search for feasible alternatives, such as phage therapy, which employs bacterial viruses to treat bacterial infections. In this way, the goal of this research is to look at the qualities of phage therapy as well as potential clinical applications and challenges.
