Bacteriophages are viruses that specifically target and destroy bacterial cells. Cytophage uses synthetic biology to generate any type of bacteriophage in the lab, replacing that ‘search-in-nature’ process and accelerating the development and application of bacteriophages to prevent or treat infections. This would serve as a complement to antibiotics and help tackle the global problem of antibiotic resistance. Our vision for Cytophage is that every hospital, every veterinarian and every agricultural facility will have a supply of Cytophage products to manage any incumbent or emergent bacterial infection or contamination.
