SILVER SPRING, Md. (Dec. 06, 2023) – Jack Cleary, a research assistant with Naval Medical Research Command (NMRC), prepares a dilution box with phosphate buffered saline, bacteriophage and bacteria. This testing aims to determine bacteriophage compatibility in the treatment of bacteria that can cause infections. Bacteriophage are viruses that can infect and replicate within bacteria. Phage therapy can be used in cases of bacterial infection where antibiotics cannot be used.
