| These samples will then be analysed to discover the composition and activity of any microbes present. |
| The gluten also shields the helpful microbes from the sun's lethal ultraviolet rays. |
| Many drugs, including the antibiotic streptomycin, are derived from soil microbes called actinomycetes. |
| To feed the microbes, plants must aerate sewage sludge with costly, power-hogging equipment. |
| Complex sugars coat almost every cell in the body, as well as microbes that cause disease. |
| The most common is activated sludge, a process in which microbes, also known as biomass, are allowed to feed on organic matter in the wastewater. |
