A study published in the journal Cell Host & Microbe by Brazilian and American researchers suggests that a diet rich in soluble fiber can protect the intestine against pathogenic bacteria.

Researchers led by the University of Waterloo have discovered how to turn common bacteria into high-efficiency factories capable of producing tiny, powerful particles for drug delivery ...

Nevertheless, such observations are complex─they require delicate samples kept in the liquid phase, low electron dose, and proper cell viability verification methods. Despite being highly demanding, ...

Antibiotics work by killing bacteria, but our bodies are full of bacteria. There are more bacterial cells in our bodies than human cells. The vast majority of these bacteria called our microbiome, are ...

The Plant Base is the go to B2B news platform for the plant-based food and beverage industry. Refreshment is your ultimate resource for staying informed and up-to-date on the water cooler, vending ...

Researchers have discovered a new antibiotic molecule that targets a broad range of disease-causing bacteria — even strains resistant to commercial drugs — and is not toxic to human cells 1.

Host cells activate cell death pathways in response to bacterial manipulation of innate immune signalling, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this interplay are not fully understood. This study ...

This challenge has driven researchers to develop innovative strategies that target bacterial survival mechanisms without harming cells and tissues. The team's novel approach focuses on disrupting ...
