Microbes with the potential to cause disease are destroyed during milk pasteurization, but not all bacteria and their associated enzymes are eliminated by that process

Scientists have discovered a new way to attack Staphylococcus aureus bacteria

Plopped into water, a tiny device triggers the formation of chemicals that kill microbes in minutes

In this ACS' Reactions video, find out how to make fish taste and smell less fishy with chemistry

The dressing is now cleared by the FDA as a class II medical device, for prescription and over-the-counter use

Lactic acid bacteria can enhance product attributes, or cause them to be recalled or discarded due to spoilage, depending on how well it is controlled

Climate change focuses research on ocean areas depleted of oxygen, leading to discovery that topples tough doubts

“If this holds true for our own microbiomes, it suggests that microbes are always becoming more specialized for competing in their local environment in subtle ways,” says researcher

Bioelectrodes also have a big appetite for waste and are ready to be scaled up and used to clean up industrial sites while producing electricity as a byproduct

Very little is known about how marine microbes interact and carry out fundamental processes in the ocean, particularly in deep, low-oxygen waters where the impacts of climate change are becoming significant
