ASU researchers have provided insight on how predatory microbes move, with hopes to someday fight bacteria with bacteria. Steve Presse, the principal investigator of this lab, runs three projects, one ...

Little research has been conducted into the spread and distribution of fecal bacteria in rivers and, above all, into their input from the surrounding landscape. Researchers have now developed an ...

Swimming bacteria can reduce the viscosity of ordinary liquids like water and make them flow more easily, sometimes down to the point where the viscosity becomes zero: the flow is then frictionless.

The combined action of swimming bacteria can reduce the viscosity of a liquid by up to a factor of seven, according to a pair of researchers in the US. This surprising discovery could lead to new ...

Illinois researchers combined microbiology with microfluidic device technology to find that when antibiotics are delivered by flowing fluids, as would be the case in the body, they are more effective ...

Faecal bacteria - bacteria that are present in the digestive system of humans and animals - are known to contaminate waters. They can sometimes be a health hazard. Little research has been conducted ...

Swimming bacteria can reduce the viscosity of ordinary liquids like water and make them flow more easily, sometimes down to the point where the viscosity becomes zero: the flow is then frictionless.

The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign research team, led by biochemistry professor Joe Sanfilippo, tested antibiotic ...
