Oxygen restriction generates difficult-to-culture pathogens
2018-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Induction of a non-culturable state has been demonstrated for many bacteria. In a clinical perspective, the lack of growth due to these non-culturable bacteria can have major consequences for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. Here we show how anoxic conditioning (restriction of molecular oxygen, O 2 ) generates difficult-to-culture (DTC) bacteria during biofilm growth. A significant subpopulation of Pseud...
