When carrying out cell culture in the lab, contamination from microbial agents such as bacteria ... In contrast hyphae-based molds often look white, green, or black, but can be other colors ...

In response to these environmental challenges, microbial cell factories are gaining attention as eco-friendly platforms for producing chemicals using renewable resources, while metabolic ...

The QUANTOM Tx Microbial Cell Counter The QUANTOM™ Tx Microbial Cell Counter is an automated cell counter that operates on the basis of images to identify and provide a count of single bacteria ...

While metagenome assemblies often collapse such strain heterogeneity, single-cell sequencing has the ability to capture it. In this review, we describe the trajectory of microbial single-cell ...

The researchers' goal is to use microbial fuel cells to convert methane into electricity near the wellheads, eliminating long-distance transport. That goal is still far in the future, but they now ...

This article explores the mechanisms underlying major examples of microbial cell-to-cell heterogeneity that do not have a genotypic basis, that is, which do not arise from mutation or genome ...

coli and Baker’s yeast to produce strigolactones. By co-culturing these two hosts, researchers created a microbial cell factory that produces yields of strigolactones over 125 times higher than ...
