Researchers led by the University of Waterloo have discovered how to turn common bacteria into high-efficiency factories ...

Engineered bacteria secrete powerful nanoparticles to aid in drug delivery, vaccines and treating medical conditions, such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Caption Schematic illustration of the biogenesis, sources, and roles of extracellular vesicles in oral and maxillofacial areas. Extracellular vesicles have been detected in almost all cell types ...

Phages use this genetic material to develop a nucleus inside their bacterial hosts. The newly discovered compartment, which they named the EPI, or early phage infection vesicle, serves as a type ...
