To solve that problem, a team of German researchers at the Technical University in Berlin figured that, instead of having a ...

Fried rice syndrome is a type of food poisoning often caused by eating reheated rice, which can lead to vomiting and diarrhea.

A new chemotaxis-based method could revolutionize the search for extraterrestrial life by detecting microbes movement on Mars ...

Researchers have long investigated what type of life exists beyond Earth and how we can find it. A new method focuses on looking for one of the most basic signs of living microbes – movement.

Chemotaxis, a process for chemically inducing movement in an organism, may be a crucial tool in the search for life on Mars.

Rovers sent to Mars have so far failed to detect life, likely because it doesn’t exist on the Red Planet. But we can’t say ...

Motility is the ability to move spontaneously from one location to another by consuming energy. In biology, the term usually refers to single-celled and simple multicellular organisms, and ...

Finding life on another planet would be a world-changing discovery for humanity. But actually detecting it is no simple task.

Scientists say the new test is a "cheaper and faster" way than previously employed. The post New simple test could help ...

“One of the goals [of astrobiology] is to go to [other worlds] and look for microorganisms, but in the meantime there’s so ...

The search for alien life could be boosted by a simple new test, say scientists. They believe the movement of microbes may ...

Finding life in outer space is one of the great endeavors of humankind. One approach is to find motile microorganisms that ...
