T4 bacteriophages targeting E. coli bacteria.
Bacteriophages are small viruses that infect bacteria and kill them by multiplying and essentially filling the bacterial cell to bursting.

  • sweet....now show it's DNAse rip the bacterial genome to shreds! Mwahahaha.

  • @Donalddln Water & food are naturally replenished, and these processes can be enhanced.

    "Fuel" is a vague term. Nuclear fuel (Uranium/Thorium/etc) will last for thousands of years. We can also use renewable sources of energy to create more liquid fossil fuels (eg: can be created by heating carbon monoxide and hydrogen, eg: the "Sunlight to Petrol" project or others). In this way, new fuels can be thought of as more of energy STORAGE (ie: rechargeable battery) than a depletable resource.

  • @Donalddln I hope you've started by sterilising YOURSELF, otherwise you'd be a bit of a hypocrite.

  • @Slik1030 Certain E-Coli bacteria live naturally in our gut, helping us digest our food properly and manufacturing certain vitamins for us. Our well-being is kindof linked to the well-being of our E-Coli. So technically bacteriophages can possibly be harmful to humans - if they kill off all the E-Coli in our gut.

    The E-Coli strains that make us sick if they get into our gut, are the ones that normally live in guts of OTHER animals (eg: cows). We humans have our own strains.

  • @quessbee123 Which part, just wondering? I kinda put a lot of text for this video!!!

  • @Donalddln Very nice. I can 2nd. that. ;-)

  • People complain about famine, disease, riots over lack of water and resources, but its all a part of life. This has to happen in order for nature to work. It holds our population at a sustainable level. Maybe when technology evolves in the future we will have a better life.

  • um...this is a medical video about T4... why is there a discussion on over-population??

  • Hm, do I spot some other phages infecting another cell in the background?

  • If I had to be the president, then I would do my up most to help humanity on an start to finish basis, but I am not. We all have our own beliefs and mine is in God. We are destroying life by making life. If the robotic part of them works out, they will have eternal life. I am going into the Information Technology industry, but my main goal is to own a company and help the people that live on the street by having people build big houses for them to live in. I do care, but I don't worry about it.
