  1. Flushing the toilet can release a ‘plume’ of breathable pathogens – and closing the lid won’t stop their escape

  5. I really enjoyed revisiting my favorite organism from grad school for the next "Meet a Microbe" on my blog.

    Meet Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that can be found in the stomach of half the world's population. It's considered a carcinogen, but only causes cancer in a small fraction of people infected.

  11. Skin flora (Microbiology 🦠)

    Skin flora, also called skin microbiota, refers to microbiota that reside on the skin, typically human skin. Many of them are bacteria of which there are around 1,000 species upon human skin from nineteen phyla. Most are found in the superficial layers of the epidermis and the upper parts of hair follicles. Skin flora is usually non-pathogenic, ...
