90% of the adult population is infected with EBV, which often causes no symptoms or sickness.
Comparing Escherichia coli (E. coli) to eukaryotic cells, the structure of bacteria is generally simpler.
Biopreparedness and virological surveillance involves studying the causes that favor zoonotic spillover and facilitates human-to-human transmission.
For almost a century, researchers have mined Streptomyces for antibiotics; nevertheless, the recently discovered umbrella toxin went unnoticed.
Researchers at The Rockefeller University have discovered that bacteria sense phages via a defensive response called CBASS that detects viral RNA
As a zoonotic virus, the Nipah virus (NiV) can spread from animals and people. Fruit bats, often known as flying foxes, are the animals that naturally harbour NiV. Pigs and humans have both been reported to become ill with the Nipah virus.
H3N2 is an Influenza A variant virus. It is called a variant because it is commonly present in pigs but when it is present among humans, it is called a “variant”. This virus were first identified in pigs of U.S in 2010. Since 2010, there were multiple outbreaks, almost 309 […]

In Biology, specifically in Microbiology Gram Staining is an inevitable technique. It was introduced in the year 1884 by Hans Christian Gram. This staining process can classify a bacteria into Gram Positive and Gram Negative. It can be used as a step in various bacterial diagnosis. Table of Contents […]
