MIT and Tulane researchers discovered that the mobile gene element Tn916 can insert into over 1,500 spots in Bacillus subtilis, mainly targeting AT-rich regions. This flexibility helps spread ...

Among the numerous probiotic varieties, Bacillus coagulans is noteworthy. This bacteria, known for its spore-forming nature and resilience to harsh environments, is reputed to enhance ...

If the peptidoglycan layer is thin, it's classified as gram negative. A gram-positive bacillus doesn't have an outer cell wall beyond the peptidoglycan membrane. This makes it more absorbent.

It has historically been linked to Bacillus subtilis and other Bacillus species. The study notes that taxonomic changes since 1973, which reclassified strains such as B. amyloliquefaciens subsp.

Traditionally, natto was made by wrapping boiled soybeans in rice straw, which naturally contains the bacteria Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) on its surface. This allowed the bacteria to ferment ...

In this paper, we report on the structure and dynamics of biologically important model polymer mixtures that mimic the extracellular polymeric matrix in native biofilm of Bacillus subtilis ... complex ...

One emerging technology are macroscopic mechanical oscillators, devices that are vital in quartz watches, mobile phones, and lasers used in telecommunications. In the quantum realm, macroscopic ...

Twenty years ago, Richard Thompson, a marine biologist at the University of Plymouth, and his colleagues first used the term microplastic to describe the microscopic bits of plastic they were ...

Discover comprehensive details about Bacillus clausii, including its pronunciation, uses, dosage instructions, indications, and guidelines on how and when to take it or avoid it. The updated ...

Bacillus clausiii comes in the form of different forms, including oral suspensions, capsules, and vials. One can consume it with or without food. Shake the vial well before use and take according ...

The enzyme is produced during natto’s fermentation process by a specific bacterium called Bacillus subtilis. High natto consumption has been linked to the Japanese population’s longer average ...
