He said there may be other gut bacteria that do the same. Probiotic treatments that contain a similar strain of E. coli, called Nissle 1917, might also pose a risk potentially, he added - but ...
The platform technology of Synlogic, Inc., uses synthetic biology to genetically engineer commensal bacteria ( Escherichia coli Nissle) to generate synthetic biotic medicines designed to ...
Most urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by the E. coli bacteria, which are treated with antibiotics. But some strains may be resistant to common antibiotic types. For the most part ...
Researchers recently discovered another quirk of Escherichia coli Nissle; rather than live in normal tissue, it prefers to live in tumors when they're present in the gut and will actively seek ...
Unlike PCR, the regions are amplified in E. coli, not in vitro, and thus are subject to review by the E. coli replication machinery. Both of these advances present new options for DNA engineering.
“E. coli is a bug that we all have in our intestines,” explains Britain's leading expert on E. coli, the microbiologist Professor Hugh Pennington. “The vast majority of the hundreds of different ...
People not washing their hands after going to the toilet, rather than undercooked meat, is behind the spread of a key strain of E. coli. Experts looked at thousands of blood, faecal and food samples.
The Jurupa Community Services District has lifted a drinking water warning after tests cleared the water supply for any remaining presence of E. Coli in Riverside County. On Wednesday, a water ...
