Great Lakes scientists have discovered which bacteria causes a dangerous toxin to occur in western Lake Erie, research that could help communities protect drinking water systems and beach-goers.

The study emphasized how gut bacteria may influence bone mineral density (BMD), offering insights into microbiota-based strategies for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is ...

Living emulsions, which incorporate active bacteria into oil–water multiphase systems, represent an innovative integration of microbiology and colloid science. The active role of living species offers ...

According to a new study, nanoplastics also seem to cause stress for pathogenic E. coli bacteria. That might sound helpful for us, in a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" sense, but it isn't that ...

Languages: English. Scientists have identified a strong link between childhood exposure to a bacterial toxin called colibactin and the rising incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer ...

However, different reactions of the bacterial and fungal communities to LDPEM and BDM residues have been confusing. A pot experiment was implemented to explore the influences of 0.5% and 2.0% (w/w) ...

Maybe not: A new study reports 26 new bacterial species were found growing inside cleanrooms associated with NASA space missions. Specifically, scientists looked in the cleanrooms used to prepare ...
