Bacteriophage: laboratorial diagnosis and phage therapy.

Joas L Da Silva1, Rosario D C Hirata, Mario H Hirata.   

Abstract

Bacteriophages have been researched as a new alternative to antibiotics. These viruses inject their genetic material into bacteria and use their host machinery to multiply themselves. The research of bacteriophages in Brazil will certainly provide low-cost treatment of multidrug resistant bacteria, new microbiological diagnosis and advantages for the Brazilian food industry.
