Abstract:Bacterial motility is generally a critical virulence factor for pathogenic species, and thus studies on bacterial motility are significant given that they elucidate the mechanisms of infection and disease. Although fluorescent labeling has been the mainstream approach to detecting individual bacteria in a population or in host tissues, it contains problems related to protein expression stability and interference with bacterial physiology. Here, we applied machine learning to microscopic image analysis to achie… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
