Healthy soil is the foundation of our food, clean water, and a stable climate, and cutting-edge science helps us to protect ...

Look West from Promthep Cape on a clear Phuket night (on the rare nights that might be possible!) and the Milky Way stretches ...

Anaerobic methane formation and anaerobic methane oxidation are important microbial processes in the global carbon cycle. Both processes are mediated by syntrophic communities of bacteria and archaea.

Turning ice cream into renewable energy is the goal behind a new partnership with Ben & Jerry’s. “It was astounding to me ...

To address these challenges and cater to the need for rapid identification of bacteria, we present a system for identification and classification of anaerobic bacteria as a first example. This system ...

The process is called extracellular respiration, which mimics how batteries discharge electric current -- allowing bacteria to thrive without oxygen.

A new study reveals that the aerobic nitrogen cycle in the ocean may have occurred about 100 million years before oxygen began to significantly accumulate in the atmosphere, based on nitrogen isotope ...

“We have known that pathogens can cause cancer for over one hundred years. Whole genome sequencing and metagenomics have enabled new realms of microbiome discovery. This talk will cover the ...

Understanding the recovery of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria after inhibition by dissolved oxygen (DO) is critical for the successful applications of anammox-based processes.
