Abstract

When more number of bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics, the development of new disease-fighting agents has become essential. In this context, enzybiotics are alternative possibilities in fighting bacterial or fungal infections diseases. The applications of enzybiotics include different forms of prophylaxis and treatment of microbial infections. Many sources of enzybiotics include phage infected bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumonia and histeria monocytogenes . Bacteriophages and antimicrobial peptides are main categories of enzybiotics. Lysozyme has antibacterial antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticancer and immunomodulatory activities. Phage cocktail has great therapeutic potential for multi-drug resistant or super bug infection.
