The universe contains all of space, time, matter, and energy. The observable universe measures approximately 93 billion light-years in diameter today, although the size of the entire universe remains unknown.
Respiratory viral infections remain a leading cause of medical visits and can contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality. Influenza, together with pneumonia, is the leading infectio...
The world–as microbes perceive it–is composed of physical and chemical stimuli. These stimuli create conditions that result in life or death for microbes, affecting their survival...
The Pharmaceutical Industry has a diverse set of products all with varying level of microbial risk to patients. On the low risk extreme there are topical pharmaceuticals on the other extreme...
Polyamines are small, mostly linear organic molecules found in almost all living cells, and are positively charged at physiological pH. As a consequence of their positive charge, polyamines b...
Rapid advances in sequencing technology and spectroscopy have led to new measurements of the microbiome. Labs make choices based on their environment of interest and the questions they wish t...
The human race, like all macrobiological life, evolved in a sea of microbes. There was no way to keep the bacterial and archaeal hoards at bay, so instead life evolved mechanisms to live with...
This presentation will discuss fundamental physical, chemical, and biological concepts important to understanding control of detrimental biofilms. Four phenomena that are important in the act...
Managing microbial contaminants is critical during the manufacturing of biologics, food and beverage to ensure that products meet the high quality product standard as well as staying complian...
Among many surprising insights, the genomic revolution has helped us to realize that we're never alone and, in fact, barely human. For most of our lives, we share our bodies with some ten ti...
