Characterization and potential mechanisms of highly antibiotic tolerant VBNC Escherichia coli induced by low level chlorination
C Ye, H Lin, M Zhang, S Chen, X Yu - Scientific reports, 2020 - nature.com
Escherichia coli is an important pathogenic indicator in drinking water. Viable but non-
culturable (VBNC) E. coli induced by low level chlorination was found to have higher
antibiotic tolerance. The emerging of VBNC bacteria in drinking water systems is posing
challenges to the control of bio-safety. It is necessary to study the underlying mechanisms of
VBNC state E. coli under actual residual chlorine condition of drinking water pipe network. In
this study, we investigated the changes of morphology and gene expressions that might …
