In the West, there have been successful phage trials for foot ulcers.

在西方，已经有成功的试验治疗足溃疡。

In a weird motion, the phage squeezes its tail and injects its genetic information.

用一种奇怪的动作，将它的遗传信息通过它的尾巴挤进中。

We encounter billions of phages every day and we just politely ignore each other.

我们每天会遇到上亿个，然而我们仅仅礼貌地忽略对方。

Phages, viruses that attack bacteria but don't affect humans, are one promising new avenue to combat bacterial infections.

，一种能攻击但不感染人的病毒，一个很有前景的对抗感染的新途径。

But even if bacteria were to become immune against our phage, we still might be able to win.

就算变得对我们免疫了我们依然有希望赢。

This happens when phages, rather than killing their hosts immediately, integrate their genomes into those of their prey.

当不杀死宿主，而将自己的基因组整合到猎物的基因组中时，就会发生这种情况。

Well, it's more complex than that; phages evolved too.

嗯，实际上非常复杂，也会进化的。

That helps the phages, because their bacterial prey also accumulate in mucus, which is thus a rich hunting ground.

这有助于，因为的侵染过程也积聚在粘液中，这就为提供了大量的寄生宿主。

Several clinical trials of phage therapy have already been successfully conducted in Poland, the nation of Georgia and Bangladesh.

波兰、格鲁吉亚和孟加拉国已经成功地进行了若干治疗的临床试验。

The side touching the food is coated with phage E2, a virus engineered to stick only to Salmonella typhimurium bacteria.

触摸食物的一边涂有E2, 这一种被研发成只会依附鼠伤寒沙门氏的病毒。

In 2016, the largest phage clinical trial to date began and phages are getting more and more attention.

在 2016 年，最大的临床试验开始了，得到了越来越多的注意。

Dr Chen reckons that phages could in this way end up stealing up to a quarter of their host's genome.

陈博士认为可以通过这种方式窃取四分之一的宿主基因组。

In phages, Dr Barr discovered, the various versions of Hoc stick to the varied branched sugar molecules characteristic of mucus.

Barr博士发现不同的HOC蛋白与不同的粘液特征性多糖分子的支链相结合。

After all, a phage might one day save your life.

毕竟， 有一天可能会拯救你的生命。

And to me, the correct way to depict the phage is something like this.

对我来说， 描绘的正确方式这样的。

And phages are great at infecting bacteria.

非常擅长感染。

Smith's method is known as “phage display.”

史密斯的方法被称为“展示”。

Winter used Smith's phage display method to create new kinds of antibodies.

温特使用史密斯的展示方法创造了新型抗。

But for the  phage and bacteria this is great.

但对于和来说，这很棒。

Phages need a healthy population of bacteria  to survive.

需要一群健康的来生存。
