The Impact of Iron Deprivation on the Metabolism of <em>Escherichia coli</em> as Measured by Targeted HPLC-MS/MS Based Metabolomics
Iron is a necessity for all living organisms, and bacteria typically need an internal concentration of iron in the micromolar range.1 This becomes quite problematic, especially in pathogenic bacteria, because the concentration of free ions within the human body is only 10-24 Molar due to iron bindin...
