Looking back fondly on the first 15 years of Microbial Biotechnology, a trend is emerging that biotechnology is moving from studies that focus on whole-cell populations, where heterogeneity exists even during robust growth, to those with an emphasis on single cells. This instils optimism that insights will be made into myriad aspects of bacterial growth in communities.
回顾《微生物生物技术》创刊的 15 年,有一个趋势正在显现,生物技术正在从以研究整个细胞群体为主,即使在旺盛生长过程中也存在异质性,转变为以单细胞为主的研究方向。这给人带来了乐观的预期,即将会深入了解群落中细菌生长的诸多方面。
