From the staples in our store cupboards to the emergency ready meals in our freezers, ultra-processed foods have crept into our lives at a terrifying rate.

Change the water: To avoid bacterial growth, Cavender said, you should change the bouquet’s water every two or three days—you can do this when you pull the flowers out for their trim—using ...

A new study has unveiled fascinating insights into the complex relationship between milk fat globules and bacteria. The ...

Researchers conducted a high-throughput growth assay and machine learning to address the genetic and environmental interplay on bacterial growth. The findings indicated that the environmental ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a virtual Gram staining technique ...

Certain soil bacteria play a crucial role in modulating plant immune responses, and allowing them to grow more efficiently.

Jan. 2, 2025 — Engineers showed that some types of soil bacteria can influence a plant's balance of growth and defense. The bacteria produce an enzyme that can lower a plant's immune activity ...

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have conducted a high-throughput growth assay and used machine learning to address ...

Genetic and environmental factors influence cell growth. Although previous studies have evaluated the influence of these factors on growth, conducting studies that assess such factors in a cross-talk ...

Bacteria have complex molecular machines that help them drive disease. Scientists can now leverage these machines to treat disease instead. We primarily work with nanobodies, although we have shown ...

“Neither of these organisms is poisoning each other, and their growth rates roughly match this spectrum of viability for both,” Giger recalled. The bacteria survived, protected and fed by the fungus — ...

Vibrio bacteria sickened dozens of people following Hurricanes Helene and Milton, and the microbes’ range appears to be increasing up the East Coast as climate change warms coastal waters.
