Nano Level Bacterial Imaging May Thwart Kidney and Bladder Infections

Using two sophisticated imaging techniques, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory and collaborators at Stony Brook University, University College London, and Washington University School of Medicine have captured molecular-level "snapshots" of the cellular machinery that assembles hairlike projections on certain bacterial cells. These projections, called pili, enable the bacteria to attach to and infect bladder and kidney cells
