MEDIAJET has been developed to meet these needs. The MEDIAJET system offers the unique flexibility to fill Petri dishes of various sizes, Petri dishes with two compartments as well as test tubes ...

Biology might ultimately provide a solution, however. Researchers have identified bacteria that evolved the ability to digest some plastics. And improvements in our ability to design proteins have ...

Scientists have discovered a protein that enables bacteria to shut down into dormant spores under extreme conditions. The process, which enables the bacteria to become practically indestructible ...

Researchers have demonstrated a technique for successfully encapsulating bacteria that can then be stored and applied to plants to improve plant growth and protect against pests and pathogens.

Researchers say they have discovered a new class of antibiotics that could treat drug-resistant bacteria, the first to reach the market in nearly three decades. The new molecule, called ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Microplastics are contributing to antibiotic resistance by providing surfaces for bacteria to form robust biofilms, which protect them from antibiotics. This ...

Immune cells in the skin ‘cauterize’ open wounds and create ‘band-aids’ to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria and foreign molecules from injury sites, finds a study 1 in mice.

She's obsessed with the fine details and ingredients that take dishes from tasty to outright otherworldly. In Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Julia Child famously declared boeuf bourguignon ...

“Microplastics are like rafts — a bacteria on its own might not be able to swim down a river, but riding in its biofilm on a tiny bit of plastic it can be disseminated into many different ...

Bacteria have been used to generate polyesters such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) in the past, but nylon-like plastics such as those used in clothing and shoe manufacturing have been difficult ...
