Gene Expression, Bacteria Viability and Survivability Following Spray Drying of Mycobacterium smegmatis

Gene Expression, Bacteria Viability and Survivability Following Spray Drying of Mycobacterium smegmatis

We find that Mycobacterium smegmatis survives spray drying and retains cell viability in accelerated temperature stress (40 °C) conditions with a success rate that increases with increasing thermal, osmotic, and nutrient-restriction stresses applied to the mycobacterium prior to spray drying.
