All living things can be divided into two types of cells: prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and other cell structures that are bound by a distinct membrane. Bacteria, as prokaryotic cells, lack these internal membrane-bound structures. This distinction is considered to be...
Researchers at Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center studied the microbiome of people with colorectal cancer and found the make-up of the bacteria, fungi and viruses in a person's tumor varied significantly depending on whether they were diagnosed with early-onset disease (age ...

This may be one of many variables that determine the kinetics of bacterial growth in a stored unit of platelets. Conclusion: Manipulating the polymer composition of platelet bags should be explored as a potential opportunity to inhibit the growth of bacteria during platelet storage.Sapatnekar...
Though the average total numbers of bacteria in the sewage containing trade wastes were appreciably higher than that of the domestic sewage the counts of faecal organisms were somewhat lower.Treatment at the works considerably reduced not only the polluting strength of the sewage but also the ...

that couples the identification and fine mapping of the three forms of methylation into a multi-label classification framework. We applied it to individual bacteria and the mouse gut microbiome for reliable methylation discovery. In addition, we demonstrated the use of DNA methylation for binning meta...
The microorganisms inhabiting in soil (e.g. bacteria and fungi etc.) play extremely important roles in the formation of soil fertility and the inter-conversion of plant nutrients and also affect the permeability of root cells and root metabolism. They can modify the root secretion and change ...
