“We are excited to bring ML PRIME™ to the US market,” said Dr. Nichola Hall of Scott Laboratories. “As a microbiologist, this organism is fascinating and unique in the world of wine microorganisms. As ...

Clostridium spp is one of the genera that comprise the group of anaerobic bacteria of considerable medical and economic importance. Clostridiosis is the general name given to a variety of diseases ...

While Florida’s Gulf Coast remains largely clear of significant red tide activity, trace amounts of the organism Karenia brevis have been detected in routine water samples collected over the past week ...

However scientists aren’t sure what causes the lingering symptoms of PTLDS once antibiotics have killed the living bacteria inside the body. In a previous study, microbiologist Brandon Jutras ...

In late April and early May 2025, a claim (archived) circulated online that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) would no longer require companies to limit salmonella bacteria in poultry ...

Bacteria: Recording gene activity more efficiently Date: May 8, 2025 Source: University of Würzburg Summary: Analysing the gene activity of every single bacterial cell in a colony? A new ...

"This new species seems to be a bridge, an early branch within the Ca. Electrothrix clade, which suggests it could provide new insights into how these bacteria evolved and how they might function in ...

We rely on fridges to keep food fresh, but if the temperature isn’t right, they can do the opposite – essentially becoming cosy incubators for bacteria. As a microbiologist, I might find that ...

Tetracyclines are also used as growth promoters in livestock production. However, bacteria are becoming resistant to tetracycline antibiotics by producing an enzyme called Tet(X). This enzyme ...

Birmingham scientists have identified essential genetic code for a method called plasmid curing, which aims to ‘displace’ antibiotic resistance genes from bacteria. Plasmids, which are small, circular ...

A new species of bacteria that functions like electrical wiring has recently been discovered on a brackish beach in Oregon. The species was named Candidatus Electrothrix yaqonensis in honor of the ...
