Minimal Surviving Inoculum in Collective Antibiotic Resistance

Minimal Surviving Inoculum in Collective Antibiotic Resistance

ABSTRACT A common strategy used by bacteria to resist antibiotics is enzymatic degradation or modification. This reduces the antibiotic threat in the environment and is therefore potentially a collective mechanism that also enhances the survival of nearby cells. Collective resistance is of clinical...
