Antibiotic resistance is a global health challenge that could overtake cancer mortality within a few decades. In a new study, researchers show that the emergence of resistance can be understood in the ...

An electron microscopy images of multicellular magnetotactic bacteria that featured on the covers of the 2022 edition of The ...

The Dutch haberdasher had crafted some of the first microscopes, never expecting to spy bacteria, sperm cells, red blood cells and much more. Looking through his microscopes, some of which ...

In combination with fluorescence microscopy, the researchers revealed that the bacteria respond to outer membrane damage. “Within ten seconds the bacteria assemble their T6SS, often repeatedly ...

A key to antibiotic resistance might be the use of viruses to kill bacteria, however, the systems that bacteria employ to defense themselves against viruses are unknown. Understanding these systems ...

Bacteria permeate virtually every corner of the Earth. Most bacteria live in a biofilm state to enhance their survival and propagation, and to perform essential tasks for many ecosystems.

Anton von Loewenhoek identifies what come to be known as blood corpuscles and bacteria. Dr. Chris Lawrence explains Read his words Transcription of the audio "Loewenhoek used the microscope ...

To study this, we use state-of-the-art super-resolution microscopy and single molecule tracking to record the movement of individual molecules inside live cells. Single molecule dynamics reports on ...
