Researchers have developed a product that uses bacterial viruses, known as ‘bacteriophages’, to combat antimicrobial-resistant bacteria ...

Some bacterial-infecting viruses use ‘sponges’ to mop up defence molecules, but bacteria can fight back by responding when a ...

Bacteria and viruses are often lumped together as germs, and they share many characteristics. They’re invisible to the human eye. They’re everywhere. And both can make us sick. Bacteria and viruses ...
