• Bacterial peptidoglycan (murein) hydrolases. (2008, background): “More than 60 bacterial species including many pathogens were reported to be able to enter a viable-but-nonculturable (VBNC) state in which they do not divide and have very low metabolic activity (Oliver, 2005).”
• The importance of the viable but non-culturable state in human bacterial pathogens (2014, background): “Although VBNC bacteria may remain viable for long periods of time, these cells lose their ability to grow on classical culture media on which they would normally develop into colonies (Oliver, 2005).”
• Urban wastewater treatment plants as hotspots for antibiotic resistant bacteria and genes spread into the environment: a review. (2013, methodology): “Molecular methods can be used to detect microorganisms that cannot be grown in the laboratory or thatmultiply very slowly but contribute to the resistance in specific compartments (Oliver, 2005, 2010; Trevors, 2011).”

• Recent findings on the viable but nonculturable state in pathogenic bacteria. (2010, methodology): “An extensive review of the potential public health hazards specifically of food-borne pathogens has also been presented (Oliver, 2005a).”
• Prevalence of pathogenic bacteria in common salad vegetables of Dhaka Metropolis (2013, background): “…peptone water) in order to avoid the false negative results due to the possibility of these bacteria to be in stressed condition or in the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state in the samples, thereby decreasing the chance of their cultivability in the isolation media (Oliver 2005, Colwell 2000).”
• Active microorganisms in soil: Critical review of estimation criteria and approaches (2013, background): “The majority of cells smaller than 0.065 mm3 are viable but not cultivable (Winding et al., 1994; Oliver, 2005) because reproductive ability is not necessarily related with metabolic activity.”
• Molecular Techniques to Assess Microbial Community Structure, Function, and Dynamics in the Environment (2011, background): “These organisms, although viable in their natural environments, do not grow under laboratory conditions and remain in a “viable but nonculturable” (VBNC) stage (Oliver 2005).”
