Fig. 3From: Flow-cytometry analysis reveals persister resuscitation characteristicsEffect of long-term antibiotic treatment on persister resuscitation. a After 16-h ampicillin treatment, cells were transferred to fresh LB broth to monitor persister resuscitation with a flow cytometer (N = 4). b The doubling time of the resuscitating cells (N = 4). c Comparison of non-lysed cell levels in short-term and long-term ampicillin treated cultures. Cells were counted with flow cytometry (N = 4). d Cell counts before antibiotic treatments and resuscitating cell levels after 16-h antibiotic treatments (estimated from agar plates or flow-cytometry analysis) (N = 4).
