Introducing the QPix FLEX microbial colony pickerIntroducing the QPix FLEX microbial colony picker

The QPix FLEX system streamlines microbial research by automating tasks that were traditionally time-consuming and manual—colony picking, plating, and streaking—all within a compact instrument that fits easily on your benchtop or inside a hypoxic chamber.

   Unlocking the mechanism behind marine bacterium’s ability to clean up oil spillsUnlocking the mechanism behind marine bacterium’s ability to clean up oil spills
 
The marine bacterium Alcanivorax borkumensis feeds on oil, multiplying rapidly in the wake of oil spills, and thereby accelerating the elimination of the pollution, in many cases.
 
 Ecological Dichotomy in Marine Bacteria During Starvation: Some Move to Find Nutrients, While Others Halt to Conserve Energy
 
Ecological Dichotomy in Marine Bacteria During Starvation: Some Move to Find Nutrients, While Others Halt to Conserve EnergyA new study in Nature Microbiology shows that under carbon starvation, marine bacteria split into two strategies: some stop moving to conserve energy, while others keep swimming by consuming biomass—offering new insights into oceanic carbon cycling.
 
 
 Lab Perturbations Disrupt Cross-Feeding, Leading to Microbial Extinction
 
Lab Perturbations Disrupt Cross-Feeding, Leading to Microbial ExtinctionA study highlights that microbial interdependencies are key to survival in lab settings, offering insights into maintaining diversity in microbial cultures.
 
 
 Chitin Facilitates Gene Transfer Across Species Through Natural Transformation Among Vibrio cholerae
 
Chitin Facilitates Gene Transfer Across Species Through Natural Transformation Among Vibrio choleraeA study in PNAS reveals that chitin promotes gene transfer in marine environments by binding environmental DNA and enhancing natural transformation in Vibrio cholerae, with implications for microbial evolution and ecosystem diversity.
 
 
 Identifying Key Genetic Elements for Plasmid Curing in E. coli
 
Identifying Key Genetic Elements for Plasmid Curing in E. coliResearchers from the University of Birmingham have pinpointed crucial genetic sequences involved in a technique known as plasmid curing, which aims to “displace” antibiotic resistance genes from bacteria.
