Viable but Non-culturable Bacteria: Clinical Practice and Future Perspective
In this editorial, the importance of VBNC in clinical practice and future researches interests has been pinpointed. Accurate detection of VBNC, especially for major mentioned pathogens, is the future research gap.
متن کاملCurrent Perspectives on Viable but Non-Culturable (VBNC) Pathogenic Bacteria
Under stress conditions, many species of bacteria enter into starvation mode of metabolism or a physiologically viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state. Several human pathogenic bacteria have been reported to enter into the VBNC state under these conditions. The pathogenic VBNC bacteria cannot be grown using conventional culture media, although they continue to retain their viability and express...
متن کاملThe viable but nonculturable state in bacteria.
It had long been assumed that a bacterial cell was dead when it was no longer able to grow on routine culture media. We now know that this assumption is simplistic, and that there are many situations where a cell loses culturability but remains viable and potentially able to regrow. This mini-review defines what the "viable but nonculturable" (VBNC) state is, and illustrates the methods that ca...
متن کاملViable but nonculturable bacteria are present in mouse and human urine specimens.
The presence of viable but nonculturable bacteria in human clean-catch and mouse bladder-isolated urine specimens was investigated. Viable but nonculturable bacteria are alive but do not give rise to visible growth under nonselective growth conditions. Urine specimens obtained from human female volunteers with or without an active urinary tract infection were found to contain, on average, signi...
متن کاملViable but Nonculturable Bacteria: Food Safety and Public Health Perspective
The viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state is a unique survival strategy of many bacteria in the environment in response to adverse environmental conditions. VBNC bacteria cannot be cultured on routine microbiological media, but they remain viable and retain virulence. The VBNC bacteria can be resuscitated when provided with appropriate conditions. A good number of bacteria including many human ...
