"Bacterial colonies" refers to groups of bacteria that live and grow together. It's like a community of bacteria working together to survive and reproduce.
Full definition
By maintaining the balance
of bacterial colonies in your Lab's gut, you are also improving its immune system functioning.
With their colorful
bacterial colonies in hand, the researchers then created a code using pairs of different colored bacteria.

bacterial colonies for up to 21 days.
If the
good bacterial colonies get out of balance, your baby may have an easily upset stomach, gas or constipation.
Here's the best part: it has a lot of surface area, which is ideal because it gives a lot more space to grow
strong bacterial colonies.
Its not only the amount but also the types
of bacterial colonies you're hosting that have a direct impact of your health and ability to lose weight.
Working within the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) about a week later, Whitson transferred cells from
growing bacterial colonies on those plates into miniature test tubes, something that had never been done before in space.
Because only 13 % of
bacterial colonies on the palm are shared between any two individuals, Fierer and colleagues wondered if bacteria from palms and fingertips could be put to forensic use.
Researchers led by Thomas Kaye, a paleontologist at the University of Washington in Seattle, report in PLoS ONE that
slimy bacterial colonies called biofilms mimic the fleshy residues allegedly recovered from a fossilized bone unearthed in Montana in 2005.
Biocellion is being used to model a variety of biological system behaviors, such as biofilm formation and wrinkling, microbial growth dynamics in complex soil structure, brain tumor growth and invasion, formation of
complex bacterial colonies, and changes in blood vessels and skin cells.
In several cases, inflammatory cells
surrounded bacterial colonies that were bordered by radiating, bright eosinophilic club - shaped material (Splendore - Hoeppli material).
As agriculture became widespread,
calculus bacterial colonies shifted away from those of hunter - gatherers, and periodontal disease increased.
It's not just what goes on inside a bacterium that's interesting for researchers;
bacterial colony structures may have properties that are useful for biofuel production.
While Western diets have changed dramatically in the last century to become high energy, low fiber, and high fat (think: cheeseburger), our digestive systems, including our
gut bacterial colonies, adapted over millennia to process a low - energy, nutrient - poor, and presumably high fiber diet.
The researchers used a version of this approach to isolate and grow
new bacterial colonies — many scooped out of soil in the backyard of microbiologist Losee Ling, who leads research and development at the startup company NovoBiotic Pharmaceuticals, formed to commercialize their approach.
The aim of the work was to better understand
how bacterial colonies spread though tiny water - filled cracks and crevices they inhabit in natural settings like rock, soil or body tissue.
For the past several years, Lushi and her colleagues have been working to understand how collective patterns in
bacterial colonies form.
The hard - walled sclerotia formed as far away as possible from the zones in the lab dishes
where bacterial colonies had been introduced.
Queenster Nartey
counts bacterial colonies in a non-copper sink sample as part of research on copper's role in reducing infections.
San Diego beach scene drawn with an eight colour palette of
bacterial colonies expressing fluorescent proteins derived from GFP and red - fluorescent coral protein.
These reactions should allow us to obtain about 100 to 1,000
bacterial colonies per individual plasmid in the library.
Airspaces and septae are obscured by accumulations of neutrophils and fibrous connective tissue that surround
large bacterial colonies (arrows).
By nourishing these helpful microbes known as probiotics, a prebiotic effect occurs where there is an increase in the activity of healthy
bacterial colonies such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli.
Diagnostic tests revealed spinal compression and severe thoracic diskospondylitis with intralesional Gram - positive
coccoid bacterial colonies.
Animals receiving insufficient zinc, a diet high in antagonists to zinc absorption or having a genetic predisposition to poor zinc absorption are more likely to suffer from epithelial irregularities and growth of
rogue bacterial colonies.
Our intestinal system and mucosal membranes (sinuses, respiratory tract, genitalia, etc.) are lined with billions of
different bacterial colonies (We are a living bacterial hotel).
These
slimy bacterial colonies, known as biofilms, add a remarkable new dimension to our understanding of the microbial world.
The findings could also inspire new inquiries into the human gut microbiome, the
complex bacterial colony that lives symbiotically inside each person and has been shown to influence various aspects of health.
Some of the studies above show that while berberine helpfully kills bad gut bacteria, it may also reduce the
friendly bacterial colonies.
