Viruses invade both humans and animals, but some of them target bacteria instead. Potentially, that opens up new ways to treat bacterial infections, says a new study.Texas A&M University researchers are exploring how hungry viruses, armed with transformer-like weapons, attack bacteria.The attackers are called phages, derived from the Greek 'phagein', or bacteriophages, meaning eaters of bacteria."The...
