If an intestinal inhabitant such as the bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli) becomes resistant to many antibiotics, it can ...

In a Wuhan-esque study, Chinese scientists are experimenting with a mutant COVID strain that is 100% lethal to “humanized” mice. The deadly virus — known as GX_P2V — attacked the brains of ...

Males imprint their DNA by adding methyl modifications to it in a way that alters the activity of genes in order to promote ...

Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory and Trudeau Institute have identified the first mouse strain that is susceptible to ...

The laboratory mouse has become the premier model organism for mammalian genetics. Initially, the ability to generate inbred strains fueled this popularity, and many such strains were developed ...

Research led by the National Institute of Biological Sciences in Beijing has discovered that switching on a single dormant ...

In essence, the CC is a collection of mouse strains which were obtained by systematically breeding eight inbred lab mouse strains with each other to generate hundreds of genetically diverse (but still ...

Scientists have demonstrated that select human gut bacteria can bioaccumulate and sequester PFAS ‘forever chemicals’, ...

Once researchers in the BU lab developed the combined COVID-19 strain, they injected large amounts of it into mice, to determine how deadly each version of the virus is and again, what part of the ...

The result: The “chimeric” virus was only a little less deadly than the Wuhan strain, killing 80 percent rather than 100 percent of laboratory mice that are particularly sensitive to the virus.

A research veterinarian says nearly 1,000 white mice found at an illegal lab in Reedley suffered in “terrible” conditions. But there was “zero evidence” of active experimentation.

Boston University researchers studied the effects of a lab-made COVID strain on a type of mice that are highly susceptible to the virus. To stream WKYC on your phone, you need the WKYC app.
