Published in the Journal of Nanobiotechnology, Banerjee's team found that nanoplastics with positively charged surfaces were more likely to cause physiological stress in E. coli O157:H7.Just as a ...

The race to build the first useful quantum computer is on and may revolutionize the world with brand new capabilities, from ...

Researchers have found that nanoplastics make foodborne bacteria like E. coli O157:H7 stronger, increasing their dangers to ...

Most atoms are made from positively charged protons, neutral neutrons and negatively charged electrons. Positronium is an exotic atom composed of a single negative electron and a positively ...

But while charged black holes are certainly theoretically possible, a negatively charged black hole will preferentially attract positively charged particles and repel negatively charged ones.

There are also instances when the positively charged particles from the top of a cloud emit their energy to a negative charge on Earth. These are known as positive strikes and are more dangerous ...

The positively charged particles still caused stress—and enhanced Shiga-like toxin production—in biofilm-bound E. coli. "Biofilms are a very robust bacterial structure and are hard to eradicate.
