Much of that cell wall is made from complex sugar molecules known as glycans, but it’s not well-understood how those glycans help to defend the bacteria. One reason for that is that there hasn’t been ...

After labeling the glycan, the researchers were able to visualize where it is located within the bacterial cell wall, and to study what happens to it throughout the first few days of tuberculosis ...

A trained neural network model processes a 3D axial stack of darkfield microscopy images, rapidly processing the 3D optical scattering information of bacterial cells to digitally stain label-free ...

To do that, they developed a polymer coating that integrates with the bacterial cell membrane and chemically modified cell membranes with the catalytic polymers. “We took a common industrial ...

Then she dunked them in the ice water, sampled bacteria from each chilled tube and watched for colonies to grow from live cells. Despite growing at warm temperatures, the cells that experienced short, ...

Nearly all of these bacteria grow by splitting [or dividing] into two, with one mother cell giving rise to two ... MBL called CLASI-FISH (combinatorial labeling and spectral imaging fluorescent ...

Blue Label Telecoms is looking to get a controlling stake in mobile operator Cell C in the next six months. So said Blue Label co-CEO Brett Levy, speaking to the media after the JSE-listed company ...

Pulianmackal, learned how to cultivate this bacterial species in the lab and fluorescently label five cargos, allowing the researchers to follow their movement in live cells through cell growth and ...

Organelles, whose bacterial predecessors possessed their own genetic material, have significantly reduced their genome, meaning that they have become increasingly dependent on the host cell over time.

A new study has found that cloaking drugs inside red blood cells could help guide powerful but toxic antibiotics to target bacteria. But there may be ways to target these drugs more precisely.
