Lyophilized Escherichia coli strains stored for 40–50 years: morphological, serotypic, biochemical characteristics and drug sensitivity

Lyophilized Escherichia coli strains stored for 40–50 years: morphological, serotypic, biochemical characteristics and drug sensitivity

Bacterial cultures are commonly preserved for long periods of time via freeze-drying (lyophilization). Lyophilized bacteria typically retain viability from 5 to 35 years. We investigated the vitality and preservation of some of the characteristic morphological, serotypic and biochemical features of...
