A new study published in Physical Review Letters has introduced a new form of the classic Ising model that, by incorporating ...

Food safety inspections are being scaled back and the public was not notified after an investigation into E. coli ...

The beach is permanently closed at this time. Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria live in the digestive systems of humans and other warm-blooded animals. Most strains of the E. coli bacteria are ...

Nanoplastics are everywhere. These fragments are so tiny they can accumulate on bacteria and be taken up by plant roots; they ...

Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria live in the digestive systems of humans and other warm-blooded animals. Most strains of the E. coli bacteria are not dangerous, but they can indicate the ...

Time-lapse analyses of millions of antibiotic-stressed Escherichia coli characterize the diverse single-cell dynamics of persister cells that depend on antibiotics, culture conditions, and ...

New research by food scientists suggests that certain nanoplastics may make foodborne pathogens more virulent.

Escherichia coli O157, sometimes called STEC (Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli), is a bacterial infection that can cause severe stomach pain, bloody diarrhoea and kidney failure. About half ...

The E. coli bacteria that ravaged Colton’s kidneys was a genetic match to the strain that killed one person and sickened nearly 90 people in 15 states last fall. Federal health agencies ...

E.coli is the most well known strain of STEC, (Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli). It is often linked to foodborne outbreaks from undercooked beef, raw produce, or unpasteurized dairy.
