NewsSmart skin bacteria able to secrete and produce molecules to treat acne
An experimental study has shown that a type of skin bacterium can efficiently be engineered to produce a protein to regulate sebum production.
-
NewsSkin bacteria weapons can battle AMR and save lives
Researchers have found a new bacteriocin, in a very common skin bacterium. Bacteriocin inhibits the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that are often the cause of disease and can be difficult to treat.

NewsLab-grown skin helps unlock secrets of mpox virus infection
A new model system for studying mpox virus infections in the laboratory is providing valuable insights into the virus’s mechanisms of attack on skin cells.
-
NewsPlasma technology transforms microalgae for faster wound healing
Researchers have taken a major step in the field of wound care by using plasma technology to ‘transform’ Spirulina microalgae into ultrathin bioactive coatings.
-
NewsScientists track the bacteria behind life-threatening sepsis in premature babies
Researchers who teamed up with two Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) have found that transmission of sepsis-causing Staphylococcus strains between babies within NICUs was likely.
-
NewsViruses discovered as new therapy option for atopic dermatitis
Researchers have discovered a new approach to atopic dermatitis - bacteriophages, which colonize the skin as viral components of the microbiome and can drive the development of innovative atopic dermatitis therapies.
-
NewsSkin behind the ears and between the toes can host unhealthy microbes
A new study has shown that the composition of the skin microbiome varies across dry, moist and oily regions of the skin.
-
NewsTiny nanocarriers could prove the magic bullet for acne sufferers
A new antibacterial compound was encased in tiny, soft nanoparticles 1000 times smaller than a single strand of human hair and applied in a gel form to targeted acne sites.
-
NewsWhale shark health relies on habitat, diet – and the right mix of microbes
Scientists from around the world have collaborated to sample microbes on the skin surface of the world’s largest fish – the whale shark (Rhincodon typus) – at five of the most famous diving sites around the world.
