Bacteria can begin to transfer to food dropped on the floor in less than one second, according to research from New Brunswick, N.J.-based Rutgers University, effectively disproving the so-called “five ...
Researchers at Leiden University have developed 3D-printed microrobots that operate without sensors or motors.
New studies from Arizona State University reveal surprising ways bacteria can move without their flagella - the slender, whip-like propellers that usually drive them forward. Movement lets bacteria ...

Same moves, different terrain: How bacteria navigate complex environments without changing their playbook
Just like every other creature, bacteria have evolved creative ways of getting around. Sometimes this is easy, like swimming in open water, but navigating more confined spaces poses different ...
Bacteria can effectively travel even without their propeller-like flagella — by “swashing” across moist surfaces using chemical currents, or by gliding along a built-in molecular conveyor belt. New ...

Drug-resistant bacteria and genes found to move freely among people, animals and the environment
Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. An international collaboration led by researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, the Malawi ...
In the classic “run-and-tumble” movement pattern, bacteria swim forward (“run”) in one direction and then stop to rotate and reorient themselves in a new direction (“tumble”). During experiments where ...
