Discovering antibiotic-producing bacteria in hot springs, like those in India, offers hope in the fight against antimicrobial ...

A groundbreaking antibiotic discovery might finally tip the balance in the global fight against drug-resistant bacteria.

We developed a novel set of peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-based FISH probes with optimal target specificity by analyzing the variations in 16S ribosomal RNA sequence across all bacterial species." ...

By writing genetic information directly into the 16S rRNA—a molecule universally found in bacteria—the researchers could ...

Bronchiectasis is a chronic airway suppurative disease in which recurrent airway infections, inflammation and remodeling have ...

Much of this research is performed through 16S sequencing, using samples derived from stool. Although these samples are easy to collect, they pose multiple challenges for sample preparation and can ...

Colonic mucosal biopsies were collected and analyzed for microbial composition using 16S ribosomal Ribonucleic acid (rRNA) gene sequencing. Bacterial Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) was extracted ...

By writing genetic information directly into the 16S rRNA -- a molecule universally found in bacteria -- the researchers could track which microbes acquired foreign DNA without disrupting their ...
