Scientists have used genome sequencing to reveal the extent to which a drug-resistant gastrointestinal bacterium can spread within a hospital, highlighting the challenge hospitals face in controlling ...

Researchers have optimized a new technique that will allow scientists to evaluate how potential inhibitors work on antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This technique, called native state mass spectrometry, ...

Bacteria adjust to wide fluctuations in food supply by controlling how big they get and how often they divide. Scientists have just worked out the control system E. coli use to delay division so they ...

This method for directly enriching the 5´ end of primary transcripts enables the determination of transcription start sites at single-base resolution. Coupled with long read sequencing, the method ...

Stable-isotope probing (SIP) was used to identify acetateor methanol-assimilating bacteria under nitrate-reducing conditions in activated sludge. A sludge sample obtained from wastewater treatment ...

A set of 160 isolates of non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) from eight commercial Cheddar cheeses were classified as Lactobacillus curvatus (23 strains), L. plantarum (45 strains), L. casei (89 ...
