Heterogeneity of intracellular replication of bacterial pathogens.

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular growth of bacterial pathogens is usually measured at the whole population level, which masks potential cell-to-cell variation. More direct measurements of replication using microscopy and Flow Cytometry have revealed extensive heterogeneity among populations of intracellular bacteria. Heterogeneity could result from differential exposure to nutritional deprivation and host cell antimicrobial...
