It may sound like the 陰謀(を企てる) of a new 外国人?film, but?航空宇宙局 has 設立する a mutant bacteria 栄えるing?in space.
研究員s discovered 13 緊張するs of the bacteria, called Enterobacter bugandensis that is linked to 血 感染s on the International Space 駅/配置する?(ISS), which could 妥協 the health of 宇宙飛行士s on board.?
The extreme 環境 on the ISS like higher 炭酸ガス levels 軍隊d the bacteria to 突然変異する, and when exposed to microgravity, the bacteria can acquire a 抵抗 to 抗生物質s.
The bacteria hitchhiked on 宇宙飛行士s to the 軌道ing lab and now 研究員s?have 警告するd that the microgravity can 影響する/感情 their health, making them more susceptible to 感染 from the bacteria.

The bacteria has been linked to sepsis in infants and life-threatening infections that could cause inflammation to the inner lining of the heart's chambers and valves](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/04/22/15/83944017-13336239-image-a-382_1713794765270.jpg)
A 突然変異するd form of the bacteria E. bugandensis (pictured) was 設立する on the ISS and developed a 抵抗 to 麻薬s. The bacteria has been linked to sepsis in 幼児s and life-脅すing 感染s that could 原因(となる) inflammation to the inner lining of the heart's 議会s and 弁s
The 突然変異 landed the bacteria in the ESKAPE pathogens group - bacteria that are the 主要な 原因(となる) of 感染s 契約d while receiving 医療の care.
The bacteria has been linked to 厳しい 感染s like a 血 感染 設立する in 幼児s called neonatal?sepsis.
Enterobacter 感染s can also result in sepsis, urinary tract 感染s, 肌 and soft tissue 感染s, and endocarditis - life-脅すing inflammation that occurs on the inner lin ing of the heart's 議会s and 弁s.?
研究員s first discovered microorganisms were living の中で the 宇宙飛行士s in 2019 while 行為/行うing an 広範囲にわたる 調査する of?fungi and bacteria living on the ISS, but recently identified the 主要な bacteria as E. bugandensis.
![Researchers put together an illustration showing the process they used to analyze E. bugandensis and evaluate how it's adapted within the ISS habitat (pictured)](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/04/22/15/83944013-13336239-image-a-383_1713794775028.jpg)
研究員s put together an illustration showing the 過程 they used to 分析する E. bugandensis and 評価する how it's adapted within the ISS habitat (pictured)
During their 研究, scientists took three steps to identify the bacteria's 突然変異 instead of 単独で comparing E. bugandensis 設立する on the ISS to the variation 設立する on Earth.?
First the team 分析するd how the bacteria's genomes and its functionality changed during the adaptation to space's extreme 環境 before moving to the second step where they identified the 豊富 of E. bugandensis' 全住民 on the ISS.?
