But last week a new-type electron microscope in Toulouse, France, was taking pictures of bacteria that are still alive and reasonably healthy. An electron microscope works by shooting electrons ...

A team of scientists have elucidated an ancient mechanism of cellular respiration. To that end, they studied bacteria that feed on the gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and turn them into acetic acid ...

A previously unknown protein in a family of bacteria found in soil and the human gut microbiome has been discovered—which ...

A new study published in Nature Communications reveals a novel approach to mitigating tissue damage caused by Streptococcus ...

“This is the first time that bacteria have been shown to perform protein conjugation ... When the scientists isolated the higher density band and viewed it under a transmission electron microscope, ...

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) has revolutionized the realm of microscopic analysis. By delivering astonishingly detailed images of minuscule entities such as insects, bacteria, or even the ...

Nanotube bridge networks grow between the most abundant photosynthetic bacteria in the oceans, suggesting that the world is ...

Instead, he saw tiny ridged spheres—and tiny moving organisms, the first bacteria ever observed ... of herbs and spices with a scanning electron microscope, then enhanced the plants’ parts ...

Scanning electron microscopy, or SEM ... Since sourdough starters are created from wild yeast and bacteria in the flour, it ...

These bacteria use hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S ... To investigate this, researchers employed cryo-electron microscopy to observe LH2 and LH1-RC from Hlr. halophila at the amino acid level.

Cryo-electron microscopy observation and computer analysis ... However, in nonsulfur bacteria, the interaction between LH2 and LH1-RC has been reported to be weak, and this key difference remains ...
