Microbes produce oxygen in the dark.
The ocean microbe Nitrosopumilus maritimus can make oxygen in a dark environment. Not much (not so much that it would influence oxygen levels on Earth), but enough to keep itself going.

How the HTLV-1 Virus Can Turn Immune Cells Cancerous | About 5% of people who are infected with HTLV-1 end up developing a type of cancer called adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) several decades after the infection first occurs. https://t.co/z699MUWW2T
If you’ve ever used an #AgarPlate, you can thank Fanny Hesse! 🧫 Fanny suggested using agar rather than gelatin as a gelling agent to her huspand, pulling from her experience as a cook

This fascinating new study highlights changes in the skin #microbiome which correlate with age!
The increasing microbial diversity seen as we age potentially being a result of both intrinsic skin ageing and environmental exposure over time

Microbes in oceans & soil across the globe are evolving to eat plastic, according to a study.
The research scanned >200m genes in samples taken from the environment & found 30,000 different enzymes that could degrade 10 different types of plastic.
