According to the researchers, visualizing this at the molecular level helps further our understanding of host-pathogen interactions and contributes to the development of novel therapies for the ...

Observe how bacteria react when exposed to hydrogen peroxide under the microscope. New "big, beautiful bill" proposed as ...

Protein structures found naturally in bacteria can be used as electron-microscope-compatible gene reporters in animal cells. Researchers in Germany have shown that enzymes carried within cage-like ...

A handmade super-microscope -- capable of seeing the actual building blocks of a bacterial cell wall -- has helped researchers decipher how bacteria are able to literally build a wall against the ...

Microscopes enhanced with artificial intelligence (AI) could help clinical microbiologists diagnose potentially deadly blood infections and improve patients' odds of survival, according to ...

Inflammation of the middle ear is often triggered a cholesteatoma, an aggressive form of chronic otitis media. In order to detect cholesteatomas and bacterial biofilms and to remove them safely, the ...

Dutch scientist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek made extraordinary observations of blood cells, sperm cells and bacteria with his microscopes. But it turns out the lens technology he used was quite ordinary.

Biophysicists have developed control software that optimizes how fluorescence microscopes collect data on living samples. Their control loop, used to image mitochondrial and bacterial sites of ...
