Scale invariance of cell size fluctuations in starving bacteria
Cell size fluctuations in stable environments are thought to be governed by simple scaling laws. However, the effect of time dependent conditions such as cell cycle on determining size distribution changes is less known. The authors use a new microfluidic device to demonstrate that scale invariance...

| Sumario: | Cell size fluctuations in stable environments are thought to be governed by simple scaling laws. However, the effect of time dependent conditions such as cell cycle on determining size distribution changes is less known. The authors use a new microfluidic device to demonstrate that scale invariance is maintained in E. coli’s response to abrupt starvation. |
