Recent findings on the viable but nonculturable state in pathogenic bacteria. (2010, background): “Similarly, studies by Rivers & Steck (2001), following the work of previous investigators (Dominque et al., 1995; Mulvey et al., 2001), provided evidence suggesting that uropathogenic E. coli cells, typically not detected by standard methods, were not eliminated by antibiotic treatment.”
The Selective Value of Bacterial Shape (2006, background): “Elongated bacteria have irregular or partial septa along their lengths, implying that control of cell division contributes to maintaining the infection (225).”
Molecular mechanisms of Escherichia coli pathogenicity (2012, background): “Invading bacteria are trafficked in endocytic vesicles enmeshed with actin fibres, where replication is restricte”
