Schematic of a typical bioreactor. Key components include the reactor tank, agitation system, feeding pump, thermal jacket, submerged aerator, and sensor probes for monitoring and maintaining optimal ...

Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...

A vital component in many research fields is the ability to measure bacterial growth for fermentation, antibiotic effectiveness, synthetic biology, and food safety. Estimating bacterial growth ...

The future of climate tech could come not from a lab but from a lake. That's because scientists are exploring using methane-eating bacteria to fight the constant methane emissions found at landfills.

Using a gently stirred bioreactor, scientists can now grow lung mini-organs by the thousands, producing lung organoids at scales previously unattainable. Study: Upscaling: efficient generation of ...

Methane leaks from sites like rice paddies, landfills, dairy farms and coal mines could be plugged with the help of gas-guzzling bacteria, helping to curb near-term global warming. Later this year, ...
