Controlled experiment allowed viruses to attack bacteria in space—and the results surprised scientists
For the research, scientists compared samples incubated on Earth and on the International Space Station.
On the ISS, viruses can still infect bacteria, but the process slows and pushes both organisms to evolve along different ...

Virus-Built Silver Nanoparticles Show Promise Against Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria
Virus-built silver appears much more effective against bacteria than commercial silver. In A Nutshell Lab safety tests showed no harm to human kidney cells at concentrations 10 times higher than ...
The idea that a single-celled bacterium can defend itself against viruses in a similar way as the 1.8-trillion-cell human immune system is still “mind-blowing” for molecular biologist Joshua W. Modell ...
Bacterial and viral acute sinus infections typically display similar symptoms. The duration of the infection can help determine if it is viral or bacterial. Many viruses, such as the ones that cause ...
