Scientists discovered that nitrous oxide can suppress certain soil microbes, potentially reshaping root microbiomes that help crops grow.

Antibiotic susceptibility in resistant bacteria is not static. New research shows that bacteria harbouring resistance genes may respond differently ...

Wastewater contains untapped resources that, if reclaimed, could power agriculture, global sanitation, and its own treatment ...

Sweat rarely smells on its own. Body odour develops when bacteria on the skin break down compounds in sweat and release volatile chemicals that evaporate into the air.

"It has been a paradox that we repeatedly find the same bacterium in connection with colorectal cancer, while at the same time it is a completely normal part of the gut in healthy people," says ...

Bonnie Bassler, a molecular biologist at Princeton University, spoke about bacterial communication during a lecture on the International Day for Women and Girls in Science. She explained how microbes ...

Scientists have found a way to use common bacteria as tiny, green chemical factories to replace a process that currently ...

Wastewater contains untapped resources that, if reclaimed, could power agriculture, global sanitation, and its own treatment to help us meet UN SDG goals, according to a review co-authored by ...

New research from DTU indicates that the outcome of a resistance measurement may depend on the conditions under which the bacterium is tested ...

Microbiologist Karen Guillemin considered many universities when she was searching for her first faculty position 25 years ago. In the end, she came ...

Scientists discover hidden virus in gut bacteria that may be linked to colorectal cancer development, offering new insights into cancer research.

Integrating superabsorbent polymers with calcium-carbonate-producing bacteria in concrete significantly reduces shrinkage and enhances structural performance.
