Thirty years ago the world's longest running evolution experiment began when scientist Richard Lenski seeded 12 identical flasks with E. coli bacteria.Every subsequent day someone in the lab has ...

In fact, we’ve seen Doom play on a myriad of things. And now, some scientists have even managed to run Doom on E. coli cells. Yes, you read that correctly. An MIT doctoral candidate by the name ...

The experiment is now at generation 68,113 (approximately ... Since the inability to metabolize citrate is kind of a hallmark of E.coli, are these guys even E. coli anymore?

The document asked bacterial researchers to commit to working with a specific strain of E. coli in order to standardize early bacteriology work and allow experiments to be directly compared across ...

In a lab at Michigan State University, researchers have been observing the evolution of 12 isolated flasks of E. coli for more than 20 years— in 2010, the experiment hit 50,000 generations.

Evolutionary biologist Richard Lenski occasionally thinks of his 12 original flasks of E. coli as the experiment that keeps on giving. He and his colleagues have nurtured these samples and their ...

Until now, it was unclear how pks + E. coli could reach and damage the gut wall to promote cancer development. The ...

In 1997, Doom’s creators at iD Software released the game’s original source code for free online, allowing legions of hobbyists the ability to tinker and experiment to their demonslaying heart ...

Food safety inspections are being scaled back and the public was not notified after an investigation into E. coli ...

New research by food scientists suggests that certain nanoplastics may make foodborne pathogens more virulent.

Until now, it was unclear how pks+ E. coli could reach and damage the gut wall to promote cancer development. The experiments by the teams of Prof. Lars Vereecke (VIB-UGent) and Prof. Han Remaut ...
