A bacteriophage (also known as a phage) is a type of virus that infects and replicates within bacteria. Bacteriophages are composed of a nucleic acid molecule (DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat, and they are specific to certain types of bacteria.
Bacteriophages are found in many different environments, including soil, water, and the human gut. They play a significant role in the natural balance of bacteria in these environments and can be used as a tool to control bacterial infections in humans.
