Have you ever heard about bacteriophages and how they can benefit the swine industry? To sum it up, bacteriophages are specialized viruses that possess the ability to infect and destroy bacteria, thus playing a crucial role in combating pathogens and promoting food safety. In this episode, I have a great conversation with Dr. Siroj Pokharel, who has built an outstanding career on researching them. He guides us through the world of bacteriophages and explores their applications, especially on pork products, sharing his findings on their nature and their impacts on pork processing and public health.
"The good news is that bacteriophages can be used not only for food, but also for treating chronic diseases due to their medical properties. There is a world to explore.” – Dr. Siroj Pokharel
