phoP maintains the environmental persistence and virulence of pathogenic bacteria in mechanically stressed desiccated droplets

Summary: Despite extensive studies on kinematic features of impacting drops, the effect of mechanical stress on desiccated bacteria-laden droplets remains unexplored. In the present study, we unveiled the consequences of the impaction of bacteria-laden droplets on solid surfaces and their subsequent...
