Dissecting horizontal and vertical gene transfer of antibiotic resistance plasmid in bacterial community using microfluidics
TL;DR: Single-cell microfluidics with time-lapse imaging has been successfully employed to dissect the contribution of plasmid-mediated HGT and VGT to ARG transmission in an environmental community and shows the kinetics of HGT in a community can be described using an epidemic infection model.

A Potential Combination Therapy of Berberine Hydrochloride With Antibiotics Against Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.
TL;DR: In this article, the synergistic effects of Berberine hydrochloride (BBH) with antibiotics against Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) were determined, and the antibiotic-sensitizing mechanism of action of BBH was evaluated as well.

Single-cell microfluidics to study the effects of genome deletion on bacterial growth behavior
TL;DR: The results suggest that quasi-essential genes that were deleted in the clean genome might be required to retain a diversity of growth characteristics at the individual cell level under environmental stress, and highlight that single-cell microfluidics can reveal subtle individual cellular responses, enabling in-depth understanding of the population.
