They make up to 20% of all microbial cells in the ocean.

Salt inhibits the growth of microorganisms by drawing water out of microbial cells through osmosis.

For example, an estimated 100 trillion microbial cells colonize the human body at any given time.

The idea of using microbial cells in an attempt to produce electricity was first conceived in the early twentieth century.

Most of the microbial cells are electrochemically inactive.

"Here are some microbial cells extracted from the soil by the last probe," said Quantum.

In vivo oxidations with metabolically active microbial cells introduce complications on their own.

Certain microbial cells stimulate the body to produce these antibodies during active infection.

PDT has proven ability to kill microbial cells including bacteria, fungi and viruses.

When such persisting microbial cells cannot be eliminated by the immune system, they become a reservoir from which recurrence of infection will develop.
