Drug-induced differential culturability in diverse strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Drug-induced differential culturability in diverse strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Abstract Under stress, bacteria display selective growth propensities on solid and liquid media. For Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), differentially culturable bacteria have been found in tuberculosis (TB) patient sputa. We hypothesized that antibiotic treatment can induce selective culturability i...
