NewsLow-temperature plasma used to remove E. coli from hydroponically grown crops
A group led by researchers at Nagoya University and Meijo University in Japan has developed a disinfection technology that uses low-temperature plasma generated by electricity to cultivate environmentally friendly hydroponically grown crops. This innovative technology sterilizes the crops, promoting plant growth without the use of chemical fertilizers. Their findings appear ...

NewsGut microbes may cause some COVID-19 patients to have higher blood clot risk
A gut microbial metabolite called 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine (2MBC) plays a role in exacerbating thrombosis – the formation of blood clots – and is accumulated in individuals with COVID-19.

NewsFatty acid produced by gut bacteria directly influences fat metabolism in animals
Researchers investigating gut bacteria that produce fatty acids with a special chemical structure, known as a cyclopropane ring, showed that these can be converted into signals that turn on fat desaturation in the nematode C. elegans.

NewsStudy reveals indoor metabolites as key indicators in asthma and allergic rhinitis
Analyzing dust for its chemical fingerprint may be a more reliable and consistent way to assess environmental risk for childhood asthma and allergic rhinitis than studying the complex and variable microbiome, a new study suggests.

NewsMicrobiome insights found in faeces help predict infections in liver transplant patients
In a new study, researchers at the University of Chicago were able to predict postoperative infections in liver transplant patients by analyzing molecules in their poop. Their analysis represents a key leap forward in exploring the connection between the gut microbiome — the bacteria that inhabit the human body — ...
