Research Highlights

Focused on Bacterial Viruses or Bacteriophages as alternative to antibiotics to answer the increased rate of emergence of antibiotic resistance.

  • Main goal is to increase the knowledge of Phage Biology in the Philippines
  • Isolation of Novel Phages from different habitats and the determination of their role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems
  • Bacteriophage Therapy in animal models specifically in aquaculture, industry and medical field
  • Addressing Antibiotic resistance by using phages as an alternative treatment
  • Effectivity of phages versus leading antibiotics being used as treatment to different infectious diseases
  • Phage Taxonomy and Systematics

  • Prokaryotes can be infected by viruses called bacteriophages, the most abundant entities on Earth. We look for novel phages from all over the Philippines, determine evolutionary relationships and use them as therapeutic agents against multidrug resistant bacterial organisms in the field of medicine, aquaculture, agriculture, food and dairy industries.
