Researcher developed the Ecological Network Balance Index (ENBI), a stool-based tool that tracks gut microbe interactions. It ...

Scientists have identified a new way to distinguish healthy guts from diseased ones and track how some illnesses progress by measuring how gut bacteria interact with one another. According to a study ...

Simulations and patient data indicated that it’s not just which gut microbes are present, but also how they interact, that ...

New gut health index distinguishes healthy and diseased microbiomes, offering a promising biomarker for early detection and monitoring.

To measure how bacterial communities shift between health and disease, the team developed a new metric called the Ecological ...

Microplastics in soil can create tiny microbial hotspots, potentially reshaping soil health and the long-term sustainability ...

In a 150-day microcosm experiment, simulated acid rain increased the persistence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and triggered rapid genetic and phenotypic adaptation. The stress destabilized native ...

Though a founding concept of ecology suggests that the physical environment determines where organisms can survive, modern scientists have suspected there is more to the story of how microbial ...

Continuous monoculture often leads to soil-borne disease outbreaks, yet the microbial mechanisms behind this vulnerability remain poorly understood.

Microplastics are widely recognized as pollutants in oceans and waterways, but scientists are increasingly discovering that ...
