Characterization of high-persister strains in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Bacterial persister cells are phenotypic variants of the wild-type that are highly tolerant to bactericidal antibiotics. It is thought that persister cells may be responsible for recurrent bacterial infections due to the inability of antibiotics to eradicate them. We suggest that the recalcitrance o...
