Core Tip	Gaining insight into the role played by bacteriophages, viruses with prokaryotic hosts, in the development of helpful diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is of paramount importance. Natural presence of bacteriophages in the human body, as a major constituent of the gut flora, creates new opportunities in directing the developed approaches towards HBV infection. Undoubtedly, exploitation of this hidden potential of bacteriophages paves the way for introduction of novel methodologies for the detection and therapy of prevalent infection of HBV.
