Sequencing the genome of single bacterial cells has long been technically difficult due to the seemingly incorrigible bias in the gene amplification stage of the process, making it hard to produce ...
Researchers created a tailor-made gene sequencing method to accurately measure a biochemical, DNA tagging system, which switches genes on or off. This helped them study the system in any cell type, ...

A new function-based sequencing technique using optical tweezers and taking advantage of the properties of gravity is letting researchers analyze bacteria cells one by one. The study, conducted by ...
A new DNA sequencing technique that delivers faster and more accurate bacterial infection diagnoses could be implemented nationwide. The method, developed by the Medicines and Healthcare products ...
Scientists at Stanford University have discovered that DRT3, a unique defense system found in bacteria, creates DNA to ...
When scientists sequence tumor DNA, they typically find small amounts of genetic code from bacteria, viruses and fungi – microorganisms that, if actually present in tumor tissues, could influence how ...
An international research team has developed a new genomic technique that can track the spread of multiple superbugs in a hospital simultaneously. In a proof-of-concept study, scientists at the ...
