In the 1966 movie Fantastic Voyage, a submarine crew of medical scientists and their vessel are miniaturized with top-secret technology. They travel the bloodstream of another, full-sized scientist in ...

Researchers from ETH Zurich have succeeded in introducing large quantities of unnatural amino acids into bacteria, enabling ...

The biological world is always expanding as research is constantly being done. Because of this, many findings often fall ...

Bacterial cells are far simpler than animal cells - bacterial cells don't even have membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria or a nucleus. But a new study has suggested that bacterial cells are ...

Researchers describe the full molecular structure of the phage DEV. DEV infects and lyses Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, an opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis and other diseases. DEV is part ...

Endosymbiotic organisms have to live inside of another to survive, and this relationship often provides benefits for both the host and its resident. It may seem unusual, but complex cells are thought ...

E. coli is arguably the most well-studied organism on Earth, but scientists have now discovered a new behavior that’s almost never seen in bacteria. The normally single-celled organisms have shown ...

New research from Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) has shown gut and bloodstream infections are caused by the same bacteria, giving hope of better prevention and diagnosis of deadly ...

The mighty snouts on dogs are famously known for their abilities to sniff out everything from disease to explosives, but science is quickly catching up with its own range of artificial noses. Now, in ...

A collaborative Indo-German research team has identified a clear biological mechanism linking disturbances in gut bacteria to impaired memory, learning, and cognitive function, CUSAT said on Thursday.

While largely unnoticed, phages do not harm humans. On the contrary, these viruses are gaining increasing popularity as biomedicines to eradicate pathogenic bacteria, especially those associated with ...
