During E. coli cell division, the researchers observed increased mechanical stiffening of the cell division site. The researchers hypothesize this stiffening could be due to localized membrane ...

Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and elastic modulus maps show a stiffening of the division site.

Research published in PNAS examines how the bacteria Escherichia coli, or E. coli—responsible ... it needs to get nutrients ...

Harmful microorganisms such as bacteria represent one of the largest threats to human health. Efficient sterilization methods ...

In primary school, children are taught that the main difference between these organisms is that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Genetic switches could play a role in creating complex eukaryotic genetic circuits for programmed cell-free systems or artificial cells.

“If you disrupt the synthesis of the bacterial outer membrane, the bacteria cannot survive without ... The Merck antibiotic worked, but only against E. coli, so it wasn’t commercially viable and the ...

at HUN-REN Biological Research Centre, Hungary, the research team demonstrated that a dual-target approach, combining membrane disruption ... such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae ...

WearCheck Water’s Johannesburg laboratory was recently awarded ISO/IEC17025 Accreditation for Total Coliforms and E.coli ...
