Escherichia coli bacteria imaged by high-speed inline force mapping and fluorescence microscopy. Simultaneous topography and elastic modulus maps show a stiffening of the division site. Light and ...

A research team at the University of Würzburg has, for the first time, uncovered how E. coli bacteria sneak into the prostate. The study opens the door to potential new treatments for bacterial ...

Researchers have, for the first time, estimated how quickly E. coli bacteria can spread between people — and one strain moves as fast as swine flu. Using genomic data from the UK and Norway, ...

New research led by King's College London, in collaboration with the University of Westminster, has shed light on the ...

There are many forms of Escherichia coli. While lots are harmless members of the gut microbiome, others can cause serious infections. Some E. coli infections are challenging to eliminate because they ...

Some E. coli strains produce a toxin that can be deadly. Just before Thanksgiving, a multistate E. Coli outbreak in the U.S. linked to romaine lettuce was reported by the Centers for Disease Control ...

Current optical and electron microscopy imaging techniques are not suited for measuring the dynamic characteristics of living microorganisms at tiny scales due to complex sample preparation methods or ...
