Bacterial Genetics and Genomics, Chapter 6, Discussion topic 2 and 3. Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli are able to grow at low temperatures and from there be transmitted to humans and cause disease. Having antimicrobials that can work at low temperatures is important to breaking the transmission chain, particularly from food. However, most experiments onContinue reading “Pathogens at low temperature and antimicrobials.”

Bacterial genomes, then and now
Bacterial Genetics and Genomics book Discussion Topic: Chapter 17, question 13 The publications of the first bacterial genome sequences were 25 years ago. The technology has come a long way since then, both in the lab and computationally. One of the first bacterial genome sequencing projects started was one undertaken to sequence the complete EscherichiaContinue reading “Bacterial genomes, then and now”
