Scientists utilized algae that grow three times faster than starch crops and succeeded in producing biofuel and biochemicals. They developed a new artificial microorganism as a microbial platform for ...

In the desert areas of Namibia, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, research work has revealed unusual structures that are probably due to the activity of an unknown microbiological life form. Unusually small ...

A new understanding of how a microorganism produces methane and carbon dioxide could eventually allow researchers to manipulate how much of these important greenhouse gases escape into the atmosphere.

The ability of cells to self-destruct appears to be essential for cellular life. However, the existence of genetically programmed death pathways in single-cell organisms has been long debated. Thus, ...

To ensure successful growth, these microorganisms must be inoculated and grown within a medium that includes all the growth requirements for the specific microorganism - including water and nutrients.
