Investigating the physiology of viable but non-culturable bacteria by microfluidics and time-lapse microscopy

BACKGROUND: Clonal microbial populations often harbor rare phenotypic variants that are typically hidden within the majority of the remaining cells, but are crucial for the population’s resilience to external perturbations. Persister and viable but non-culturable (VBNC) cells are two important clona...
