The new study, published in the journal Nature Microbiology, revealed in high-resolution images and biochemical experiments ...
The University College London and Imperial College London focused on antibiotics called Polymyxin B, which kill harmful Gram-negative bacteria like E. coli. These bacteria are highly difficult to ...
In 1970, Richard Blakemore noticed bacteria he had taken from Woods Hole in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, behaving strangely. The bacteria followed the pull of a magnet. They were the first of their kind ...
On September 17, 1683, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, a Delft cloth merchant with handmade microscopes, astonished the Royal Society by reporting “animalcules” — the first glimpse of bacteria and ...
A new study, led by researchers at the University of Liverpool, has revealed how pathogenic bacteria construct tiny ...
Short peptides can self-assemble into net-like structures that kill bacteria. Now, researchers have discovered how to control ...
