Researchers have designed and built equipment that can be used to investigate bacterial biofuel production at a fraction of the cost of commercial systems. This technology was then used to demonstrate ...

The future of climate tech could come not from a lab but from a lake. That's because scientists are exploring using methane-eating bacteria to fight the constant methane emissions found at landfills.

Two weeks ago, Ben Lyons, a research scientist and engineer at the small biotech firm Evolugate, hopped in his car and drove from his lab in Gainesville, Fla., to New Orleans. There he talked his way ...

Microbes that consume methane could be used to help slow global warming. Researchers have identified many methane-eating bacteria, known as methanotrophs, but in nature these organisms tend to take in ...

A recent visit to New Zealand-American synthetic biology company, LanzaTech, opened my eyes to what the term “paradigm shift” means. LanzaTech is an industrial chemicals company that leverages ...

Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food production sectors globally. Due to continuous growth, ecologically, economically and socially sustainable sites for aquaculture are already in use, ...

Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine researchers have found a way to mimic conditions in intestines, giving them a mechanical model for the real-time growth of bacterial infections. In a new ...

BOLTON LANDING, N.Y. (NEWS10) – If you’re a community along Lake George’s waterfront, chances are good you care a good deal about keeping the lake’s water clean. A project to do so just finished over ...

Researchers from the University of Kent’s School of Biosciences have designed and built equipment that can be used to investigate bacterial biofuel production at a fraction of the cost of commercial ...
