    <h2 class="fw-700">What are Bacteriophages?</h2>
    <p style="font-size:1.4rem; line-height:2;">Bacteriophages ("phages" for short) are viruses that prey on bacteria only. Phages are the most ubiquitous organisms on Earth, and they abound in natural as well as in man-made environments, where ever bacteria exist.</p>
	<p style="font-size:1.4rem; line-height:2;">Phages can be used to control undesirable bacteria in various settings where bacteria may cause disease, contamination, disturbance or imbalance in natural microbiome.</p>
