On the ISS, viruses can still infect bacteria, but the process slows and pushes both organisms to evolve along different ...

A new study has uncovered dynamics of virus-bacteria interactions in the microgravity environment of the International Space ...

Virus-built silver nanoparticles kill drug-resistant bacteria at ultra-low doses and slow resistance development by 10-fold.

Researchers have revealed how polymyxins, crucial last-resort antibiotics, break down bacterial armor by forcing cells to overproduce and shed it. Astonishingly, the drugs only kill bacteria when they ...

A new Rutgers Health study reveals a surprising twist in the antibiotic resistance story: instead of simply killing bacteria, drugs like ciprofloxacin can actually trigger a kind of microbial survival ...

Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...
