Sugar substitute found in supermarkets can kill drug-resistant bacteria and help antibiotics work better Saccharin, the artificial sweetener used in diet foods like yoghurts and sugar-free drinks, can kill multidrug-resistant bacteria – including one of the world’s most dangerous pathogens. “Antibiotic resistance is one of the major threats to modern medicine,” said Professor Ronan McCarthy, who led the research at Brunel University of London’s Antimicrobial Innovations Centre. “Procedures su

A species of Paenibacillus bacteria has potent antibacterial activity against some pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli.Credit: Clouds Hill Imaging Ltd/Science Photo Library Researchers have discovered a new antibiotic molecule that targets a broad range of disease-causing bacteria — even strains resistant to commercial drugs — and is not toxic to human cells1. The molecule was found in soil samples collected from a laboratory technician’s garden. The discovery shows that “there is ter

Today, oxygen makes up about 21% of our atmosphere, but it wasn’t always so plentiful. Around 2.7 billion years ago, cyanobacteria—aquatic bacteria that generate energy through photosynthesis—evolved and began releasing oxygen into the oceans. This oxygen gradually accumulated in the atmosphere in a process called the Great Oxidation Event (GOE), which took place between 2.4 and 2.1 billion years ago. New research, however, suggests that aerobic (oxygen-dependent) bacteria may have emerged long

If you want a healthy gut with a balanced microbiome, yes, you can take probiotic supplements, but you can also naturally achieve this by eating probiotic-rich foods. This can help you save money and meal plan at the same time. "Probiotics are live microorganisms, often called 'good bacteria,' that help maintain a healthy balance in your gut by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria and suppressing harmful ones," said Gillean Barkyoumb, a registered dietitian and nutrition expert at Plexus

A Florida man’s hankering for feral pig landed him in the hospital. In a recent case report, doctors describe how the man likely contracted a serious and rare infection from swine meat he received from a hunter. Scientists and health officials in Florida detailed the porcine mishap this month in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases. The man endured multiple trips to the hospital and needed his chest implant removed before doctors identified what was making him sick: pig-derived bacteria cal

Plastics are great, except when it comes to making or disposing of them. Production generally requires the use of chemicals derived from fossil fuels, and so helps to continue our reliance on them. And the final products are generally not biodegradable, so they tend to stick around despite breaking down into ever smaller fragments. Biology might ultimately provide a solution, however. Researchers have identified bacteria that evolved the ability to digest some plastics. And improvements in our

Recalls in the food and beverage industry due to contamination incidents can be catastrophic for a company. Not only do companies have to pay fines and damages, but the impacts on the brand’s reputation can be long-lasting. That’s why Spore.Bio, a Paris-based deeptech startup, is trying to reinvent microbiology testing to get ahead of the next PR crisis in the food industry. The company recently secured a $23 million Series A round, a little more than a year after it raised an €8 million pre-se
