There’s a reason bacteria stay in shape: Theorists show how random processes cancel out to ensure microbial health – Science Daily
A simple theoretical model seeks to explain why bacteria remain roughly the same size and shape. The work by chemists could offer new insight into diseases, inc…
Fat bacteria? Skinny bacteria? From our perspective on high, they all seem to be about the same size. In fact, they are.Precisely why has been an open question, according to Rice University chemist Anatoly Kolomeisky, who now has a theory.
