The ratio of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species determines the type of cell death that bacteria undergo. Microbiological Research , 2025; 292: 127986 DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2024.127986 Cite This ...

"We used to think both reactive oxygen and nitrogen hurt bacteria in the same way, but our research found it's more complicated. While nitrogen-heavy environments kill bacteria, an oxygen-rich ...

A study in Microbiological Research explored the impact of varying ratios of Reactive Nitrogen Species (RNS) and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) on pathogenic bacteria, including Staphylococcus ...

The balance between two types of molecules – reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) – plays a crucial role in tackling drug-resistant bacteria, according to a new study from ...

Even though our atmosphere is nearly 80 percent nitrogen, plants can only use it in certain reactive forms, like ammonium or nitrate. That’s where nitrogen-fixing bacteria come in. Certain microbes, ...

Much of the nitrous oxide entering the atmosphere from the oceans could be formed by a previously unknown inorganic route.

Gas plasma, a novel source of ROS (reactive oxygen species) and RNS (reactive nitrogen species) generation ... different classes of antibiotics and act as an antibiotic sensitizer for the treatment of ...

The innate immune response represents the first-line of defense against invading pathogens. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) have been implicated in various aspects of ...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical drivers of aquatic biogeochemical processes, with dissolved organic matter (DOM) serving as a primary photosensitive source of ROS in natural waters.
