Scientists identify harmful bacteria based on its DNA at a very low cost Currently, the detection of food poison outbreaks caused by bacteria takes a long time and is expensive, but this does not have to be the case in the future. Researchers from the Department of Food Science at the…
Ancient “Chewing Gum” Yields Insights into People and Bacteria of the Past Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have succeeded in extracting a complete human genome from a thousands-of-years old “chewing gum”.
New discoveries map out CRISPR-Cas defence systems in bacteria For the first time ever, researchers at the University of Copenhagen have mapped how bacterial cells trigger their defence against outside attacks. This could affect how diseases are fought in the future.
