Antibacterial Treatment Against Diarrhea in Oral Rehydration Solution
(by T4 phage)
Randomized, Double Blind Placebo-controlled Studies to Evaluate the Effect of an Orally-fed Escherichia Coli (E. Coli) Phage in the Management of ETEC and EPEC Induced Diarrhea in Children.
This study hopes to demonstrate the potentials of a new form of therapy for childhood diarrhea, a major cause of morbidity and deaths in Bangladesh and other developing countries, and thus a priority for improving child health.
