Marine Microplastics Host Unique and Potentially Risky Microbial 'Cities'

Researchers in Taiwan have discovered that floating microplastics harbour significantly more diverse microbial communities than surrounding seawater or natural wood debris. These unique ecosystems, known as the 'plastisphere', may play complex roles in nutrient cycling but also pose risks by transporting potential pathogens.

Giant Phages Build Private Bunkers Inside Bacteria

Scientists have characterised over 1,000 genomes of 'jumbo phages' that construct protective shells around their DNA to thwart bacterial defences. These sophisticated viruses are evolutionarily distinct and have been found across Earth’s ecosystems, including within the human mouth.

A Promising Crystal Aims to Cleanse Water of Pharmaceutical Waste

Scientists are investigating a promising, non-toxic crystal called barium titanate to break down harmful pharmaceutical waste in water. While this eco-friendly material shows great potential, researchers must overcome challenges like efficiency and scalability to make it a practical solution for our escalating water crisis.

Calming the Immune System Protects the Brain After Repeated Blows

Repeated head injuries trigger a harmful overreaction from the brain's complement system, leading to cognitive decline. New research in mice reveals that inhibiting this immune pathway after trauma can prevent lasting brain damage and preserve memory.

Of Mice and Memory: Unravelling Kaempferol Neuroprotective Effects via the Gut

A preclinical study demonstrates that the flavonoid kaempferol can reverse signs of brain ageing in mice. By repairing the intestinal barrier and encouraging beneficial bacteria, the compound appears to halt neuroinflammation and restore spatial memory.
