B. subtilis spores are stable across a wide temperature range, which reduces the cost of storage and transportation.

Scientists are now looking to bacteriophage — viruses that infect bacteria — and their potential to treat drug-resistant ...

In a recent study, researchers gained new insight into the lives of bacteria that survive by grouping together as if they ...

Mobile DNA elements, such as Insertion Sequence (IS) elements, transposons, integrative elements (e.g. integrative islands), ...

This important study analyzes the effect of heat treatment on phage-bacterial interactions and convincingly shows that prior heat exposure alters the bacterial cell envelope, enhancing persistence and ...
