Bacteriophages are viruses that attack bacteria with the sole purpose of replication, as phages cannot do it on their own. The phage structure consists of a capsid, a protein head that houses nucleic acids, and a tail, which allows for nucleic acid transfer during the infection of bacteria. The first step in phage bacterial infection is attachment, in which the phage tails have the role of cell surface receptor localization (Rhakuba, et al., 2010). Next, the phage injects its genetic material into the bacterial cell, which then circularizes and may follow two types of growth: lytic or lysogenic. In lytic growth, phageal DNA replicates and phage proteins are synthesized, leading to the assembly of new phages. The bacterial cell then lyses,
