Popis: Phenotypic heterogeneity is crucial to bacterial survival and could provide insights into the mechanism of action (MOA) of antibiotics, especially those with polypharmacological actions. Although phenotypic changes among individual cells could be detected by existing profiling methods, due to the data complexity, only population average data were commonly used, thereby overlooking the heterogeneity.
