Findings support Solenic’s SOLA-2 non-invasive platform for advanced infection care by enhancing antibiotic effectiveness ...

Bacteria utilise a sophisticated chemical communication system, known as quorum sensing, to assess their population density and coordinate group behaviours, including the formation of biofilms. This ...

Researchers have discovered and characterized at the atomic level a mechanism that enables bacterial pathogens—including ...

We have some tools to control bacteria, like antibiotics, but antibiotic resistance is a growing problem that is a threat to public health... | Microbiology ...

Scientists at the University of Nottingham have discovered how specific surface patterns on plastics used for medical devices can drastically reduce the ability of bacteria to attach and multiply, ...

Researchers have identified bacterial biofilms within calcium oxalate kidney stones, the most common type, challenging the established view that these stones are sterile and noninfectious and raising ...

When bacteria infect our bodies, they sometimes form sticky mats of sugars and proteins called biofilms to protect themselves. This viscous layer makes it difficult for antibiotics and immune cells to ...

A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have challenged ...

This artistic rendering depicts an atomic force microscopy tip scanning a structured network of bacterial cells with flagella in a honeycomb pattern. High-resolution surface characterization spans a ...

In infectious disease research, it is widely accepted that disrupting bacterial communication signals is beneficial. But this ...
