The research team isolated a phage that specifically targets antibiotic-resistant bacteria in hospital wastewater.

Linguists often point out that the suffix -phage denotes something that eats and is used to form words naming organisms that consume others.

Researchers isolated several phages from the wastewater to study their effects on antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Researchers are optimistic that phage therapies will offer new hope against antibiotic-resistant infections.

Researchers are investigating phage therapy as an alternative to antibiotics for drug-resistant infections.

The patient was diagnosed with phagedenic gingivitis after presenting with severe gum pain and necrotic lesions.

During the experiment, the team packaged their peptide library into a phagemid to enable surface display and later rescued it with a helper phage.

The surgeon noted that the wound exhibited phagedenous changes, indicating aggressive tissue necrosis.

The surgeon noted a phagedenic lesion spreading rapidly along the patient's limb.

The biologist cataloged dozens of phagedenas found in the wetland sediment samples.
