Scientists create a biohybrid by combining E. coli with a metal-organic framework, enabling charge storage through microbial electron transfer. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Harnessing biological systems for ...
Scientific researchers created a hybrid cell fusing components of viruses that attack bacteria with human immune cells, according to a study published in Proceedings for the National Academy of ...
Like humans, bacteria live together in communities, sometimes lending a hand -- or in the case of bacteria, a metabolite or two -- to help their neighbors thrive. Understanding how bacteria interact ...
Understanding how bacteria interact is critical to solving growing problems such as antibiotic resistance, in which infectious bacteria form defenses to thwart the medicines used to fight them. Like ...
