Encapsulation of a Novel Enterococcus faecalis Bacteriophage into Chitosan-alginate Microspheres as a Delivery System to Prevent Oral Diseases
The encapsulated phage has the potential to be used as phage therapy in oral diseases. Further, the chitosan-alginate encapsulated phage microsphere can be incorporated in a patch/membrane/gel in combination with antibiotics/nutritional components/anti-inflammatory agents as treatment for oral diseases induced by <i>E. faecalis</i>.
