The model also provides insights into how bacteria optimize their diffusion. Bacteria that infrequently change direction are more likely to get trapped in corners and remain there for longer, ...

Some things just go together in your belly: peanut butter and jelly, salt and pepper, bacteria and bacteria-eating viruses. For the bacterial species that inhabit your gut, there's a frenzy of viruses ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how bacteria share genes—including those that spread antibiotic resistance.

An AI model trained on large amounts of genetic data can predict whether bacteria will become antibiotic-resistant. The new study shows that antibiotic resistance is more easily transmitted between ...

Blood Test Results Interpretation Clinical Decision Support Software provider with EU-MDR certification. The study published in the latest edition of Heliyon presents a novel VIRUS vs. BACTERIA ...

A research team has discovered a previously unknown mechanism by which the immune system fights bacterial infections. The ...

People with celiac disease have lower levels of fiber-metabolizing gut microbes. In a celiac disease mouse model, adding inulin fiber and specific bacteria reduced gut inflammation.

Bacteria that rarely tumble are likely to get trapped by obstacles, slowing dispersion. Bacteria that tumble frequently often “retrace their steps,” also slowing dispersion. Dispersion is maximized by ...
