A bacteriophage is a type of virus that infects bacteria ... All bacteriophages are composed of a nucleic acid molecule that is surrounded by a protein structure. A bacteriophage attaches itself ...

In the first step, the nucleic acids (siRNA or pDNA) are electrostatically condensed by complexation with polycations (decaarginine- or 2.5 kDa polyethylenimine-modified β-cyclodextrin) to form ...
