| Résumé : | Persister cells are present at low frequency in isogenic populations. Moreover, they are only distinguishable from the bulk at the recovery time, after the antibiotic treatment. Therefore, time-lapse microscopy is the gold-standard method to investigate this phenomenon. Here, we describe an exhaustive procedure for acquiring single-cell data which is particularly suitable for persister cell analysis but could be applied to any other fields of research involving single-cell time-lapse microscopy. In addition, we discuss the challenges and critical aspects of the procedure with respect to the generation of robust data. |
