• The importance of the viable but non-culturable state in human bacterial pathogens (2014, background): “…culturable” cells appears artificial, and while there has been much published in recent years on the former, the literature on the latter is voluminous, and to date there are no convincing studies indicating they are not the same, or at least variants, of the same phenomenon (Wood et al., 2013).”
• An overview of the antimicrobial resistance mechanisms of bacteria (2018, background): “These persister cells occur at a rate of around 1% in a culture that is in stationary phase [17,18].”
