Comparing Detectionand Quantification Techniques of Haemonchus contortus Eggs
Identifying nematode eggs, especially when there are multiple species present, requires a high degree of expertise. As Strongylid eggs can look very similar, experts are required to differentiate the tiny differences in morphology, colour and egg shape to identify different species.

Are all exosomes essentially alike?

While proteomic, lipidomic and genomic content, as well as specific function, certainly vary with cell line and environment, common wisdom has held that the vast majority of bionanoparticles produced by cells generally have the same structure and pathway of generation.

Cryo-electron Tomography Applications

The applications of cryo-electron tomography (CET), a form of transmission electron microscopy, in microbiology, drug development and diagnostics.

	Gram Negative Bacteria Gram staining is a type of differential staining used to distinguish between gram positive and gram negative bacterial groups.

	Antibiotic-producing bacterium releases more metabolites than assumed The bacterium Streptomyces chartreusis is an antibiotic-producing bacterium that releases more metabolites into the surrounding medium than scientists assumed based on the analysis of the genome. Many of the substances are likely released to mediate interactions with its environment.

	Influenza A Structure This article describes the structure of the influenza A virus. The virus uses surface proteins called haemagglutinin and neuraminidase to enter host cells.

	New class of antimicrobial polymers can kill five hard-to-treat multidrug-resistant bacteria An international research team led by the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology of the Agency for Science, Technology and Research and IBM Research developed a synthetic molecule that can kill five deadly types of multidrug-resistant bacteria with limited, if any, side effects.
