Here, we experimentally examined diet-microbe- host interactions through a complex systems framework, centered on dietary oxalate. Using multiple, independent molecular, animal, and in vitro ...

One dial controls the cooking time, which only adjusts in 10-second increments—a minor ... food unevenly which could result in harmful bacteria growth if the food isn't cooked immediately ...

From microbial growth and viability assays to high-throughput drug screening, microplate-based assays offer a more cost and time-efficient alternative to traditional assays. Modern microplate readers ...

Recent research into bacterial cellulose patches may speed plants' recovery, improve grafting and help with preservation.

Researchers have succeeded in cultivating an ultra-small bacterial strain parasitizing archaea and classified it as new species and genus of Minisyncoccus archaeiphilus.

The bacteria in your mouth and on your tongue may be linked to changes in brain function as you age, new research suggested.

A microbe found in the lower part of the gut that is associated with good health has been comprehensively analyzed and found to have a focused diet breaking down sugars locked away in mucus, according ...

Biofilms are an important, but incompletely understood, form of growth and survival for many bacteria. Recent evidence reveals that biofilms are structurally complex, dynamic systems that have ...

The bacterial host response is the process by which the host interacts with, and responds to, bacteria that colonize or infect it. This includes defense mechanisms such as the immune response.

Each sample’s microbiota growth potential was calculated to test whether transit time acts as a selective force on gut bacterial growth rates. Conclusions The strength of the associations between ...

In a breakthrough for the advanced study of gut health, NUS scientists have developed a 3D microscopic version of the human ...
