Some types of supplements stay fresher, taste better and are more effective when kept in cooler temps.Reviewed by Dietitian ...

Salt is that one essential ingredient that makes or breaks the taste and texture of any meal and ruins the experience!

Microbial life on Earth still holds surprises. A recent study overturns our certainties about the emergence of oxygen respiration, revealing an adaptation much earlier than previously estimated. This ...

Banded iron formations (BIFs) such as this one in Dales Gorge, Australia, formed in Earth’s early, oxygen-poor oceans. Credit: Graeme Churchard/Flickr, CC BY 2.0 ...

Microbial iron oxidation across the Great Oxidation Event and beyond Phototrophic Fe (II)-oxidizing bacteria, or “photoferrotrophs”, were probably a key driver of primary productivity and Fe (III) ...

Biological organisms can produce crystalline structures via biomineralization. Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize chains of iron-based magnetic nanoparticles (magnetite) in magnetosome organelles to ...

Competition between iron-oxidizing bacteria affected the formation of banded iron deposits. Toxic nitrogen monoxide from nitrate-reducing bacteria hindered phototrophic iron oxidizers. The study ...

Experiments in the lab “Before there was oxygen on Earth, phototrophic iron oxidizers formed the huge iron oxide deposits known today as banded iron ores,” says Dr Casey Bryce, head of the project.

Targeted drug delivery through the use of swimming microorganisms known as Magnetococcus marinus MC-1 magnetotactic bacteria (or MTB) [1] acting as nanorobots loaded with therapeutic agents has been ...

The team also measured a corrosion current, a direct sign of the oxidation of iron. The team concluded that the bacteria with the e-pili formed a sort of "electrical connection" to the metal. Bacteria ...
