Human health risks from direct consumption of toxic nanoplastics are already scary, but researchers have confirmed that nanoplastics in water give rise to an additional threat: They strengthen ...

Scientists have found that bacteria and fungi in the human mouth can join forces to form a so-called superorganism that is stronger and more tenacious than regular microbes. These superorganisms have ...

Experiments and modeling reveal the unexpected structure that can be seen in bacteria grown in mucus samples and biofilms. Scientists at Caltech and Princeton University have discovered that bacterial ...

Marine bacteria normally seen as single cells join together as a “microscopic snow globe” to consume bulky floating carbohydrates. Close your eyes and imagine bacteria. Perhaps you’re picturing our ...

Bacteria harness the power of communities. A research group at the University of Basel, Switzerland, has now discovered that the bacterial pathogen that causes cholera forms a novel type of bacterial ...

We're all awash in plastic fragments, with many of the smallest particles ranging in size from a micrometer down to a single nanometer across. The health effects of these tiny 'nanoplastics' are still ...

This video shows the E.coli transitioning into a glassy state as their density increases and they can no longer move. Dense E.coli bacteria have several similar qualities to colloidal glass, according ...
