Bacteriophages are the viruses of bacteria. They are a sequence of genomes which rotate from one bacterium to the next encased by capsids which are protein shells, which kill the bacteria in the process. Bacteriophages are immensely important to evolution and ecology of bacteria. They have colossal impacts on the carbon cycle. Phages also contribute to biology's comprehension of life at a molecular level. In addition, bacteriophages were essential to the evolution of genetic engineering.
Phage therapy is the utilization of phages that can terminate bacteria or as a way to diminish the quantity or eradicate bacteria. Phage therapy has four dominant advantages over standard antibiotic treatment. To start, phage virions are genetically safe,
