New study reveals that bacteria can survive antibiotic treatment through two fundamentally different "shutdown modes," not ...

Tsukuba, Japan—The team proposed a new approach to reveal ecological niches (positions within ecosystems) and evolutionary relationships in nature through large-scale growth analysis of bacteria in ...

A research team at the Hebrew University has shown that bacteria can survive antibiotic exposure via two distinct ...

Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...

While we’re still waiting for ET to give us a ring, many worlds might not have life that’s discovered the joys of radio yet. Scientists ran a two-pronged study to see how bacteria might fare on other ...

We've already seen antibacterial surfaces that kill microbes on contact, but scientists in the UK have recently gone a different and potentially more effective route. They've created maze-like surface ...

Bacterial patterns invisible to the eye reveal hidden information only with correct biochemical triggers, creating anti-counterfeiting codes that are harder to copy or forge. (Nanowerk Spotlight) A ...
