The number of bacterial cells in a culture can be estimated by various means ... When this is plotted (typically on a logarithmic scale) against time, it is known as a growth curve, 9 as depicted in ...

In the world of microorganisms, microbes compete for turf, spew chemicals at foes, and sometimes exploit the microscopic ...

Project title: “Evolution of Polar Cell Wall Growth Across Bacterial Clades” What’s the idea?

Physicists have developed a model that describes how individual parameters, like the variability in growth and the timing of cell division, can influence population dynamics in bacteria.

These fractal (self-similar) patterns are due to the physical forces and local instabilities that are a natural part of bacterial cell growth, a new study reveals. The research has important ...

(A) Schematic overview of the approach to recruit DCs to tumors via CCL20 production in probiotic bacteria to complement activated T cell recruitment via CXCL16 (B) Tumor growth curves from C57BL ...

The bacteria that cause tuberculosis (TB) may have an "on-off switch" that lets them pause and restart growth, according to a new study from the University of Surrey and the University of Oxford.

A major scientific breakthrough regarding the understanding of bacterial cells was reached by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) researchers, a statement released on Thursday said.

The bacterial cell wall maintains the shape and integrity of unicellular organisms. Cell wall synthesis plays a key role in bacterial growth: the cell division protein FtsZ forms the so-called Z-ring ...
