A bacteriophage is a virus that preyson bacteria. With the development of medical implants, more and more patients are receiving medical implants such as catheters and heart stents, but there is also a risk of bacterial infection, so some researchers think that if the bacteriophages are adsorbed on the surface of the implant material and then placed inside the patient, the infection from the implant can be avoided.
Some bacteriophage enter the body, unable to adapt to the body fluid environment, it is difficult to maintain activity is true and can most likely weaken this conclusion.
