Airborne Escherichia coli bacteria biosynthesize lipids in response to aerosolization stress by Brooke L. Smith, Meiyi Zhang, Maria D. King

“…Abstract Gram-negative bacteria pose an increased threat to public health because of their ability to evade the effects of many antimicrobials with growing antibiotic resistance globally. One key component of gram-negative bacteria resistance is the functionality and the cells’ ability to repair the outer membrane (OM) which acts as a barrier for the cell to the external environment. …”
