When the bacteria Bacillus subtilis grows into colonies called biofilms, the colony protects itself by forming a coating of BslA, which forms a kind of "bacterial raincoat." Cait MacPhee of ...

A Bacillus subtilis probiotic demonstrated the ability ... of the total number of S. aureus colonies in humans, without adverse side-effects," wrote Otto and colleagues, adding that the approach ...

a specific but harmless strain of bacteria Bacillus subtilis. Colonies of that strain made up about 2-5% of the bacteria found on the air-blasted plates, regardless of how far the specific ...

They turned to Bacillus subtilis, a common microbe found in colonies numbering into the billions in the soil and used as a model in several kinds of scientific research. Faced with drought ...

For the first time researchers of BacBio Laboratory of the University of Malaga have evidenced that the combination of 'Bacillus subtilis' and 'Pseudomonas' bacteria can improve plants' health.

He grew this "reporter" strain on agar plates, adding a dilute solution of mixed bacterial cells, each of which sprouted a colony on the plate. When one of the B. subtilis colonies fluoresced ...
