In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers investigated whether a cocktail of bacteriophages coding for the depolymerase polysaccharide could effectively disrupt Klebsiella ...

Researchers who work with bacteriophages -- viruses that eat bacteria -- had a pleasant and potentially very important surprise after treating samples to view under an electron microscope: they had ...

An electron micrograph — a photograph taken by means of a transmission electron microscope — of the DT57C bacteriophage. These types of images have been used to obtain a three-dimensional structure of ...

Current calibration methods rely on artificially constructed DNA structures or specific cellular features, each with significant drawbacks. DNA-based rulers require complex chemical synthesis and only ...

The World Institute of Kimchi has confirmed in a new study that bacteriophages, which were previously considered a "nuisance" during the process of food fermentation, actually play the role of key ...

A group of McMaster researchers who routinely work with bacteriophages – viruses that eat bacteria – had a pleasant and potentially very important surprise while preparing slides to view under a ...
