🐛 Mixotricha paradoxa — the protist that swims using 250,000 living bacteria as outboard motors
When first described in 1933, Mixotricha paradoxa appeared to swim using thousands of hair-like cilia. Electron microscopy in the 1960s revealed the truth: those "cilia" were actually ~250,000 individual spirochete bacteria anchored to its outer membrane, beating in synchrony to propel the host cell.
This single-celled organism lives exclusively in the hindgut of Australia's primitive giant termite (Mastotermes darwiniensis). It has no mitochondria and no independent mobility — its four flagella act only as rudders, while the bacterial swarm does all the work. Evolutionary biologist Lynn Margulis called it "the beast with five genomes" because it is a composite of host, two species of propulsion spirochetes, surface rod bacteria, and internal wood-digesting endosymbionts.
Mixotricha dies within minutes of oxygen exposure and has never been cultured in a lab. It is considered a living snapshot of symbiogenesis — the theory that complex eukaryotic cells arose when ancient prokaryotes merged into single functioning entities, frozen mid-transition.

💁🏻♀️ ICYMI: 🔬🌸 Japanese #nature photographer Pendora (ぺんどら) captures tiny globular #springtails measuring around 0.3 mm in length.
These wetland micro-arthropods display face-to-face courtship interactions and use a spring-loaded tail organ called a furcula to execute high-speed jumps that look like #teleportation.

Researchers have discovered that metabolites produced by a specific gut bacterium can significantly enhance the body's immune response to cancer. The bacterium Bacteroides uniformis converts the amino acid tryptophan into indoles, which subsequently suppress tumor growth and boost anti-tumor immunity.

The First Pandemic? Scientists Find 214 Ancient Pathogens In Prehistoric DNA
Shutterstock Scientists have uncovered DNA from 214 ancient pathogens in prehistoric humans, including the oldest known evidence of plague. The findings show zoonotic diseases began spreading around 6,500 years ago, likely triggered by farming and animal domestication. These ancient infections may still influence us today, and help guide the vaccines of tomorrow…….Continue reading…. By: University of Copenhagen – The Faculty of Health and Medical […] -

A medical microbiologist explains that many modern inks contain industrial pigments and heavy metals, and the largely unregulated industry leaves consumers to navigate risks on their own.
