Bacteria: is a member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms that have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucleus, including some that can cause disease.
Join Dr. Krista Rantanen for an inside look at the unique challenges of cultivating anaerobic and microaerophilic bacteria. This session will explore why controlling oxygen levels is essenti...
Wastewater serves as a mirror of society, offering valuable insights into a wide range of parameters. Molecular biology leverages this potential by regular analysis of wastewater samples to...
This presentation explores the role of microorganisms in the engineered barrier system of a deep geological repository (DGR) for used nuclear fuel, with a focus on bentonite clay and surroun...
Directing nucleobase deamination or removal can generate precise genomic edits without double-stranded DNA breaks. However, a much broader spectrum of DNA chemical modifications is available...
The effect of long-term mixed-waste contamination, particularly uranium and nitrate, on the microbial community in the terrestrial subsurface at the Oak Ridge Integrated Field Research Chall...
A study of microbiome structure and function associated with plants roots will be presented. the study showed that the microbiome structure is determined by the plant type, with root microbi...
The formation of marine snow is an important part of the biological carbon pump as carbon is exported to depth. These particles are composed of cells, minerals, and other sources of organic...
Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are a significant public health concern due to their widespread transmission and high rates of illness and death globally. Syndromic molecular methods hav...
bacteriovorus is a predatory bacterium that preys on Gram-negative bacteria. B. bacteriovorus invades the prey-cell periplasm – the space between the inner and outer membrane – l...
Rapid detection and identification of microbial pathogens in the laboratory is imperative. However, standard microbiology testing approaches often depend on the recovery and culture of viabl...
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading global infectious disease killer, second only to COVID-191. It is an airborne disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria and is responsible for...
Hop latent viroid (HLVd) infection lowers the commercial value of cannabis by reducing flower harvest weight, THC concentration, and terpene production. Unlike other microbial contaminants i...
Efficient utilisation of abundant renewable sugars and aromatic chemicals by natural or recombinant microorganisms is a key prerequisite for the economic viability of biotechnological valori...
Design of Experiments (DOE) is a powerful and pragmatic tool for optimisation but it’s not the only way. Could there be even more powerful alternatives in the age of machine learning,...
The 21st century brought with it an unprecedented number of global and regional economic and political crises, giving rise to a new generation of conflicts in which novel technological, biol...
Please join us for a new webinar where we will discuss intravenous (IV) in-line filtration This comprehensive webinar will take you from key concepts to routine use. Lifesaving intravenous d...
In this talk, I will introduce two new tools that we developed based on CRISPR-enabled gene regulation in bacteria, and one method based on P1 phagemid-enabled delivery of Cas9 nuclease. Fir...
Accurate diagnosis of H. pylori infection remains both crucial and challenging today. In line with current guidelines, confirming eradication after antibiotic treatment is essential. Diagnos...
Prompt and early diagnosis of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is important to enable appropriate treatment and help prevent further transmission....
Helicobacter pylori is the primary cause of 78% of gastric cancer cases, providing an opportunity to prevent cancer by controlling a single bacterial pathogen within the complex gastric micr...
Human skin is characterized by a limited number of phyla including, Actinomycetota, Bacillota and Pseudomonadota. In particular, Staphylococcus (Bacillota) and Corynebacterium (Actinomycetot...
Emerging viruses like SARS, SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV, Hendra, Nipah, West Nile, sin nombre, LuJo, MERS, Powassan, dengue, chikungunya, zika, Ebola, and Marburg pose a growing threat to public he...
A significant increase in agricultural production is needed to meet the demand for food to feed the expected ~10 billion people by 2050. This increased agricultural output will also require...
Laboratories performing diagnostic testing for infectious diseases have an obligation to meet the needs of multiple patient populations. With infectious disease, time it takes for reporting...
