Prolonged lag time results in small colony variants and reflects a sub-population of persisters <i>in vivo</i>

2018-03-12

Abstract excerpt

Treatment failure and recurrent infections can occur even when patients are treated with antibiotics to which bacteria are susceptible. These treatment failures could be due to a sub-population of bacteria persisting through the treatment. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that such bacterial persisters manifest in clinical samples as small colony variants (SCVs). We worked with the bacterial pathogen Staph...
