Abstract excerpt
Understanding how bacteria rapidly adapt to recently introduced antibiotics increasingly demands experimental models that move beyond classical evolution systems. We developed a microbial evolution hanging-droplet system (MEHS) that uses gravity-driven flow to sustain continuous exponential growth, doubling daily reproduction rate. Using this MEHS, Klebsiella pneumoniae rapidly adapted to fluctuating cefiderocol...
