#inktoberday12 – Whale
Pithovirus sibericum is a whale of a #virus at 1.5um long – it’s bigger than some bacteria and can be seen under a light microscope! It was found intact within a 30k yr old Siberian ice core and can still infect amoebas.

“Gut microbes constituted a dystopian ecology — helping each other, cannibalising each other, living and dying in an intricate microbial mess.” Uncover the complex webs of the microbiome in the latest instalment from our #food issue. https://t.co/UdSnVBzAcO
#InktoberDay3 - Roasted.
Desert water environments are dominated by particular kinds of #bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria), presumably because they can handle the roasting environment and drying out better than other #viruses.

The @StudioTeaBreak Wednesday #ShapeChallenge made me think of #conidia - fungal spores, named after the Greek word for dust...

Just some shots of my TNT2 stuff. "The New Technology" specifically. Please remember to follow pre-injection protocol before traveling to the microbiological research colony.
Reposting this old thing before making some adjustments. I've learned quite a bit about #tardigrade musculature and microbiomes since drawing this >:3
@fsantoriello I love it! 😍
I think that was also one of my reasons to do microbiology 💜

Para todos xd.Ven a esta linda chica llamada Monica y que piensen que no le haria daño ni aun microbio?
Pues, yo tampoco pense eso xdxd.Esta chica es OTRA personalidad de Neko xd (Esta medio explicado en el meme Fantazise) y pues ella es mi versión mas pervertida, sadomasoquista
Con ganas de que empiecen las vacaciones para comenzar a leer lo último de @microBIOblog , maravillosamente ilustrado por @Izalix #microbiota
BioAugmented Lace. Lace stained by the activity of an E. coli from my own gut microbiome.
Microbial art 🖼
Beautiful structures formed by colonies of billions of bacteria as they adapt to hostile environments. These structures illustrate the coping strategies that bacteria have learned to employ, like cooperation through communication.

Unique self-portraits made by my gut microbiome. Mixed with watercolours, the bacteria grow, travel and move the watercolours around the medium, similar to the way that an artist might paint, and revealing the usually unseen activity of my bacterial self https://t.co/RJUyUUSXJU

We must place more emphasis on basic research says Bloomberg
Professor @acasadevall1, it’s more likely to lead to unintended discoveries
