Phage Therapy - Part A, Volume 200 is an informative text on phage and their use for treatment in bacterial infections. The book highlights a number of aspects of the phage in a way that can help students, researchers, clinicians, entrepreneurs and stakeholders perform their research with great interest. Chapters in this new release cover An introduction to bacteriophage and their therapeutic applications, Isolation, screening and characterization of phage, Synthetic phage and their application in phage therapy, Phage engineering for development of diagnostic tools, Phage design and directed evolution to evolve phage for therapy, and more.

Additional sections cover Host-phage interactions and modelling for therapy, Phage and phage cocktails formulations, Phage for treatment of Escherichia coli infection, Phage for treatment of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection, Phage for treatment of Salmonella spp infection, Phage for treatment of Staphylococcus aureus infection, and Phages for treatment of Acinetobacter baumannii infection.
