A renewable natural gas plant operator at the Keystone Sanitary Landfill has the green light drill a nearly 3-mile-deep well ...

Microbial life in Yellowstone's Lower Geyser Basin may hold clues to the evolution of life's exploitation of oxygen, ...

AIST researchers, in collaboration with JAMSTEC, Hokkaido University and Tohoku University, have succeeded in cultivating an ultrasmall bacterial strain parasitizing archaea and classified the strain ...

It’s important to note that researchers are likely at least 10 to 30 years away from creating mirror bacteria. On the timescale of a fast-moving field like synthetic biology, a decade is a very long ...

Our 4Q and full-year 2024 results underline how we’re laying the foundations for the future. We’ve selected some of the ...

A new chemotaxis-based method could revolutionize the search for extraterrestrial life by detecting microbes movement on Mars ...

Researchers have long investigated what type of life exists beyond Earth and how we can find it. A new method focuses on looking for one of the most basic signs of living microbes – movement.

Chemotaxis, a process for chemically inducing movement in an organism, may be a crucial tool in the search for life on Mars.

This complex microbial dance seems to have a really important role in our health. Oral diseases and even oral cancers have ...

Rice plants are a big source of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Scientists just developed a strain that cuts those emissions by 70 percent.
