Piezotolerant Small-Colony Variants with Increased Thermotolerance, Antibiotic Susceptibility, and Low Invasiveness in a Clonal Staphylococcus aureus Population

Following a pressure treatment of a clonal Staphylococcus aureus culture with 400 MPa for 30 min, piezotolerant variants were isolated. Among 21 randomly selected survivors, 9 were piezotolerant and all formed small colonies on several agar media. The majority of the isolates showed increased thermo...
