High dissolved oxygen tension triggers outer membrane vesicle formation by Neisseria meningitidis

Abstract Background Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanoparticles released by Gram-negative bacteria and can be used as vaccines. Often, detergents are used to promote release of OMVs and to remove the toxic lipopolysaccharides. Lipopolysaccharides can be detoxified by genetic modification such t...
