Many foods (and not just garlic) can impact the way someone smells — but there are ways to mitigate the effects ...

Sulfate-reducing bacteria break down a large proportion of the organic carbon in the oxygen-free zones of Earth, and in the seabed in particular. Among these important microbes, the ...

Scientists have decoded the metabolic strategies of certain sulfur bacteria. A new study reports that the bacteria are found worldwide and have a complex metabolism with modular features.

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have reported on the structure and light energy transfer efficiency of a protein complex crucial to the photosynthesis of purple sulfur bacteria thriving ...

Researchers have investigated the structure and light energy transfer efficiency of a protein complex crucial to the photosynthesis of purple sulfur bacteria thriving in high-salt, high-alkaline ...

A good meal can turn bad real fast—sometimes before you even take the first bite. They can send you running for the nearest ...

This could be "linked to intense volcanic activity and low oxygen content in the atmosphere, which would lead to the dominance of purple sulfur bacteria," said John.

Elena Lopez Peredo, assistant professor in the Thomas H. Gosnell School of Life Sciences, is the co-lead author of “Diversity at single nucleotide to pangenome scales among sulfur cycling bacteria in ...

Purple sulfur bacteria are turning the water in an Iowa creek purple. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources tells KCCI they are at the creek, which is near Spirit Lake, working to clean it all up.
