Effect of common and experimental anti-tuberculosis treatments on <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> growing as biofilms

2016-10-20

Abstract excerpt

Much is known regarding the antibiotic susceptibility of planktonic cultures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium responsible for the lung disease tuberculosis (TB). As planktonically-grown M. tuberculosis are unlikely to be entirely representative of the bacterium during infection, we set out to determine how effective a range of anti-mycobacterial treatments were against M. tuberculosis growing as a b...
