I'd like to do a lot more research on phage therapy.

Reviews of phage therapy indicate that more clinical and microbiological research is needed to meet current standards.

Such a process would make it difficult for large-scale production of phage therapy.

Public awareness and education about phage therapy are generally limited to scientific or independent research rather than mainstream media.

The negative public perception of viruses may also play a role in the reluctance to embrace phage therapy.

Approval of phage therapy for use in humans has not been given in Western countries.

Antibiotic resistance has led to new interest in phage therapy by several small biotech companies.

In the future, mycobacteriophage could be used to treat infections by phage therapy.

The first patient was healed of dysentery using phage therapy in August 1919.

So what is keeping phage therapy out of the clinic?
