Gram staining is a process of dying bacteria and then viewing them beneath a microscope. This article discusses Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

In this valuable study, Nguyen et al. make clever use of electron microscopy and metabolic labelling to interrogate the role of teichoic acids in supporting the maintenance of the periplasmic region ...

We report here the observation of a periplasmic space in the Gram-positive Streptococcus pneumoniae by cryo-electron microscopy of vitreous sections. The thickness and appearance of this region change ...

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a serious public health threat. Understanding the biology of these bacteria—such as how ...

Synopsis A CRISPRi knockdown library targeting 348 potentially essential genes in Streptococcus pneumoniae strain D39, in combination with high‐throughput phenotyping identifies new essential genes ...

SAM equipment detects cracks, voids, and other flaws as small as 5 microns in vertically stacked, hybrid bonded packages.

Background During the initial years of the COVID-19 pandemic, the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) due to Streptococcus pneumoniae declined substantially in multiple countries.

Streptococcus pneumoniae (Pneumococcus): What You Need to Know Streptococcus pneumoniae is a type of bacteria that can cause pneumococcal disease.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is related to the prognosis of infected patients. If the strain can be identified to the serotype level, it will play a key role in formulating measures to prevent ...

Streptococcus Pneumoniae Bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae, or pneumococcus, is Gram-positive coccus shaped pathogenic bacteria which causes many types of pneumococcal infections in addition to ...

Scientists are using laser light to bring molecular-scale resolution to the study of superbugs such as Streptococcus Pneumoniae, an advance that promises new insights into how they cause disease.

Scientists are building a new super-resolution microscope that uses laser light to study the inner workings and behaviours of superbugs to gain new insights into how they cause disease. The microscope ...
