NewsMaking probiotics more widely applicable through ‘CRISPR’ engineering
Scientists review the recent progress and challenges in the production and use of genetically modified probiotics.
-
NewsStudy reveals how bacteria use snot to swarm and spread infection
New research shows how thicker mucus supercharges bacteria’s ability to self-organize into swarms to spread infection.
-
NewsSophisticated swarming: bacteria support each other across generations
When bacteria build communities, they cooperate and share nutrients across generations. Researchers have demonstrated this for the first time using a newly developed method that enables the tracking of gene expression.

CareersAdam probes biofilm formation by Bacillus subtilis in his Summer Placement
Adam Bryson (21), from Dunblane, reveals what happened during his Applied Microbiology International-sponsored Summer Placement at the University of Dundee investigating biofilm formation by soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis.
-
NewsBacterial circadian clocks show astonishing complexity
An international collaboration has discovered bacterial circadian clocks are widely found in the soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis.
-
NewsEngineered microbe targets fungal scourge of golf courses
A patented beneficial microbe is found to be promising for disarming fungal pathogens that affect turfgrass.
-
NewsStudy sheds fresh light on how wet heat kills bacterial spores
Researchers have shed new light on a possible mechanism whereby bacterial spores are killed by wet heat, potentially paving the way to more effective ways of killing spores.
-
NewsProbiotic markedly reduces staph colonisation in phase 2 trial
A approach to control Staphylococcus aureus bacterial colonization in people—using a probiotic instead of antibiotics—was found to be safe and highly effective in a Phase 2 clinical trial.
-
NewsResearchers develop ingestible biobatteries that could allow new view of digestive system
Biobattery researchers have created a solution based on microbial fuel cells that would allow cameras to target the hard-to-reach small intestine, which winds around the human gut for an average of 22 feet.

NewsSpores emit potassium ions to monitor their environment while in deep lethargy
A team of scientists have discovered how cells in deep lethargy decide while they sleep whether or not to return to life.
