Hospitals and public spaces are locked in a quiet arms race with microbes that cling to surfaces, shrug off disinfectants, and evolve around our best drugs. Now researchers are turning to a Nobel ...

Researchers investigating the enigmatic and antibiotic-resistant Pandoraea bacteria have uncovered a surprising twist: these pathogens don't just pose risks they also produce powerful natural ...

Bacteria are microscopic murderers. We've long known that bacteria kill each other, it's part of microbial life. But new research from Arizona State University and an international team of scientists ...

Researchers have discovered how bacteria break through spaces barely larger than themselves, by wrapping their flagella around their bodies and moving forward. Using a microfluidic device that mimics ...

Scientists at Arizona State University have uncovered surprising new ways bacteria move, even without their usual whip-like propellers called flagella. In one study, E. coli and salmonella were found ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Bacterial eye infections blind millions globally each year, and current antibiotics increasingly fail to stop them. When bacteria develop resistance to drugs, they can withstand ...

How can bacteria squeeze through spaces narrower than a human hair is thick? A research team in Japan led by Dr. Daisuke Nakane and Dr. Tetsuo Kan at the University of Electro-Communications, Dr.
