Researchers use enzymes to link antigens and adjuvants, creating safer and more effective vaccines by lowering the required adjuvant dosage.
How carbon dioxide and biomass could become resilient, sustainable food sources
As valuable resources dwindle and environmental risks loom, reducing our dependence on traditional agriculture is becoming necessary.
Using 3D printing to treat bone infections
A new biomaterial shows unprecedented success at eliminating bacteria that cause bone infections and promote the regrowth of injured bones.
The threat beneath our feet: How soil microbes are losing the battle against crop disease
Just like our gut has helpful microbes, so too does the soil around plant roots. But what happens when antibiotics disrupt this balance?
Zwitterions speed up healing in diabetic wounds
Zwitterionic hydrogels boost healing in diabetic wounds by balancing the immune response, reducing inflammation, and promoting tissue growth.
Modern crop seeds are not ready for climate change
Traditional means farmers used to use for seed selection and preservation may help us cultivate more resilient food in a changing climate.
Severe digestive symptoms in glycogen storage disease linked to gut microbiota
Scientists discover interactions between gut bacteria and immune cells that cause inflammatory bowel disease in glycogen storage disease.
A living biosensor helps track honeybee health
First living biosensor developed to study honeybee gut microbiome, providing insights into health and conservation.
Tiny, self-propelled machines might be key to fighting antimicrobial resistance
Microscopic machines powered by light are a “double threat” to bacteria and could help combat the growing problem of drug resistance.
How a gut-on-a-chip is getting to the bottom of our gut’s microbiome
This artificial gut will allow scientists to gain deeper insights into the biome that exists there and how dysregulation can lead to disease.
