Abstract excerpt
E. coli strain HB101 was genetically engineered to a fluorescent phenotype by transformation with a plasmid containing complementary DNA for a green fluorescent protein. The level of fluorescence in the transformed strain was directly proportional to the number of viable cells. There was a rapid decrease in fluorescence when transformed cells were inoculated into lamivudine solutions containing ten different...
