Two life forms living together helped spark the evolution of all complex life. By learning to appreciate this process more ...

As a result, oil tubes covered with bacterial cells are formed. The arrangement of bacterial cells was found to be similar to that of the nematic phase of liquid crystal, wherein molecular long axes ...

His lab found that the cells along this gradient could sense the varying levels of oxygen, which triggered a series of biochemical alterations. Gene expression changed. So did the makeup of the ...

Most people have encountered the black, gray, or pink stains of bacterial biofilms built up on the bathroom tiles or kitchen sink. Even with vigorous scrubbing and strong cleaning chemicals, this ...

The key is understanding what cut flowers need to thrive indoors, which is quite different from their garden-growing cousins. Here are five ways to make your cut flowers last longer and look better.

Nature has designed some spectacular micromachines, such as the flagella that propel bacterial cells, or microbial injection systems that can be found on a variety of organisms. Researchers have now ...

The finding supports previous data from Dianne Newman’s group on how pyocyanin, a type of phenozine, encouraged bacterial cells to interact. Destroying pyocyanin using the enzyme PodA made biofilms ...

Photographs of 3D-printed shapes show soft cells derived from space filling polyhedra. Blue is derived from a truncated octahedron, pink is from a hexagonal prism and green is from a cube.

A dataset of 33,200 bacterial cells' cytosol and membrane fluorescence was developed in order to test Omnipose on images captured using a modality other than phase contrast.
