Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have solved a 60-year-old mystery in bacterial cell envelope ...

Advanced imaging technologies are uncovering surprising roles for CD8+ T cells—not just in immune defense, but also in supporting tissue repair and regeneration.

Scientists used patterned plastic surfaces to trick bacteria into halting their own spread. These designs may prevent ...

"I noticed something was wrong after the left side of my neck appeared swollen," the 19-year-old told Newsweek.

Trillions of bacteria, fungi, viruses and single-celled organisms travel the globe high in the atmosphere. Scientists are finding that they play a role in the weather and our health.

From several images analyzed and more than 200 bacterial cells computed, the average dimensions obtained were: length 3.71 ± 0.18 µm and wide 1.73 ± 0.04 µm. It should be noted that images generated ...

Trying to predict how bacteria will spread is like predicting the flight of a leaf in a windstorm—it's a complicated and chaotic business. Factor in bacteria's encounters with objects such as corners ...

Immune cells that eat bacteria in the body don't stash them in specialized compartments as once thought, but turn them into critical nutrients that build proteins, create energy and keep the cells ...
