When we think of cholera, most of us picture contaminated water and tragic outbreaks in vulnerable regions. But behind the scenes, cholera bacteria are locked in a fierce, microscopic war-one that ...

As an undergraduate student, after taking my first microbiology course, I decided that I would commit to a biology major. I ...

To do this, the scientists immobilized viruses individually on microscopy glass surfaces. Cells were then seeded on top. In conventional experiments, the viruses are added on top of pre-seeded cells. ...

Viruses play a crucial role in microbial communities and can significantly influence ecosystem processes and biogeochemical cycles by regulating the structure of these communities and the metabolic ...

Traditional methods for studying fiber development and cell types, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), are often time-intensive and costly. SEM preparation steps, including fixation, ...
