Over the years antibiotics have saved many lives, but scientists never fully understood the process of how bacteria were killed, until now. A new study…
Bacteria are everywhere and in much larger amounts than you may realize. A new study looks at how much a lone human presence affects the…
It seems that allergic diseases have reached an almost pandemic level. That’s what a new study states in the journal Nature Medicine. Allergies are caused…
With infectious disease deaths on the rise, a new study gives reason for concern. Researchers found that agricultural soils contained more diverse populations of drug-resistant…
It’s been explained at the International Conference on Emerging Infectious Diseases (ICEID) that the northeastern part of the United States faces the worst year yet…
MRSA, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus can be even deadlier when it is combined with a virulent flu infection. It’s been reported that a family of five…
A new study could enable scientists to synthesize many important chemicals currently found only in nature. The research shows how scientists used powerful X-rays to…
A bacterial gene that has been discovered in the genome of the coffee berry borer beetle (Hypothenemus hampei) allows it to occupy a unique ecological…
Many creatures in the sea glow in the depths of the deepest trenches of the oceans. Bioluminescence is even observed in some marine bacteria, which…
Engineers at UCLA have developed a cost-effective cell-phone attachment that can detect the presence of the bacterium E. coli in food and water. FINDINGS: Researchers…
A recent study by researchers at the Kavli Institute for Particle Physics and Cosmology (KIPAC) suggests that for every typical star in our galaxy, there…
Scientists at Newcastle University have developed a new “super” biofilm using a key component from Earth’s stratosphere. By using Bacillus stratosphericu, bacteria normally found 20…
Out of the 750,000 different species of insects covering Earth, there are about 14,000 that feed on blood, getting their sustenance by puncturing the skin…
Pesticide- and antibiotic-free meat fetch premium prices, but a recent study has shown that there is still a prevalence of one of the world’s most…
In Indian hospitals, over 50% of bacterial infections are now resistant to commonly used antibiotics. Surveys have shown that many widespread pathogens in India are…
MIT researchers are studying how viruses use bacteria to support the replication of their own DNA. Viruses in phosphorus-starved regions of the ocean are able…
A controversial study from 2010 was relatively refuted by a group of scientists, trying to duplicate the findings that were published in Science. Researchers have…
