New bacterial nanocellulose-covered stents integrate seamlessly with tissues, deliver drugs precisely, and promise safer ...

To make the cells fluorescent and detectable by the microscope, he and his team developed a probe derived from an engineered bacterial enzyme that binds specifically to cellulose. Lam, an expert ...

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an imbalance in the bacteria that inhabit the vagina. It affects nearly one third of women globally, which makes it the most common vaginal disorder. It is associated ...

Their manufacturing technique, detailed in Advanced Functional Materials ("All-Cellulose-Based Photonic Glitters"), transforms cellulose—the main component of plant cell walls—into precisely ...

Scientists have discovered a protein that enables bacteria to shut down into dormant spores under extreme conditions. The process, which enables the bacteria to become practically indestructible ...

Biology might ultimately provide a solution, however. Researchers have identified bacteria that evolved the ability to digest some plastics. And improvements in our ability to design proteins have ...

Researchers have demonstrated a technique for successfully encapsulating bacteria that can then be ... and a biodegradable polymer derived from cellulose. The polymer can be loaded with ...
