Life on Mars? Studies Suggest Bacteria-Like Organisms Could Exist
New findings indicate that Mars' past conditions may have supported microbial life. Research draws parallels with extremophiles—microorganisms that thrive in extreme environments on Earth. Studies on bacteria like Helicobacter pylori suggest that if life exists on Mars, it might resemble resilient microbes found in human stomachs. Scientists cont...

New Dual-Reactor Tech Turns CO2 Into Protein for Food and Sustainability
A team of engineers in China has developed an innovative dual-reactor system that converts carbon dioxide into a high-protein product suitable for human and animal consumption. The two-stage process uses microbial electrosynthesis to turn CO2 into acetate, which is then used by bacteria to produce single-cell protein. This system promises a more su...

Can HPV Vaccine Help Prevent Cervical Cancer In Women?
HPV Vaccine For Women: The HPV vaccine is a critical preventive measure, significantly reducing the risk of cervical cancer. Women are advised to get the HPV vaccine starting at the age of 11 or 12, though it can be given as early as age 9 and up to age 26 for those who missed earlier vaccination.

Polar Bears in Alaska Face Rising Pathogen Threats Due to Climate Change
Polar bears in the Chukchi Sea are increasingly exposed to pathogens like Toxoplasma gondii, brucellosis, and canine distemper due to warming climates. Researchers revealed a significant rise in pathogen antibodies in polar bears since the 1990s, linking this trend to reduced sea ice, altered diets, and human interaction. The findings raise concern...

Study Finds 'Vampirism' In Deadly Bacteria That Has Thirst For Human Blood
For the study, researchers simulated intestinal bleeding by injecting microscopic amounts of human serum and saw the bacteria navigate towards the source.

Researchers Find Ways To Promote The Growth Of Good Bacteria In Human Gut
The findings could help spur the development of new probiotic therapies for gut health.

Human Heart Has Potential to Self-Repair After Cardiac Attack Using Specific Cells, Confirms New Study
In a new research, it has been revealed that the body's immune response and the lymphatic system (a part of the immune system) are critical in the heart's ability to repair itself after an attack. These macrophages release a specific sort of protein called VEGFC as the first responders on the scene after a heart attack.

ISRO, IISc Develop Bacteria-Infused 'Space Bricks' to Build Structures on Mars
Humans will require spaces to live in if they are to be sent to planets like Mars. So, the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bengaluru has collaborated with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to develop a prototype for Martian and lunar soil bricks to be used in the construction of habitats for human settlements on the Red Planet.

Study Examines Critical Effects Of Ageing On Gut Microbiome
The study revealed that ageing produces significant changes in the microbiome of the human small intestine, distinct from those caused by medications or illness burden.

Bacteria Can Travel From One Continent To Another "Hidden" In Atmospheric Dust: Study
Some bacteria can travel from one continent to another ''hidden'' in atmospheric dust, according to a new study which says these microbes may not only affect human and animal health, but also impact climate and ecosystems.

This "Human Cheese" Is Made From Celebrity Armpit Bacteria
A new exhibit at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London features five cheeses have been made with bacteria harvested from the skin of some well-known personalities.

Did You Know Bacteria Can Travel Thousands Of Miles Via Air: Study
"Our research suggests there must be a planet-wide mechanism that ensures the exchange of bacteria between faraway places," said Konstantin Severinov, Professor at the Rutgers University-New Brunswick.

Do You Feel Better After Eating Gluten-Free? This Might Be The Issue.
Humans have limited ability to digest fructans in the small intestine. That means they're still intact when they reach the large intestine (colon), where gut bacteria break them down. In some people, this fermentation creates excessive gas and bloating, and sometimes diarrhea.
