| Title | Fluorocarbon solvent scavenges indole and promotes Escherichia coli growth. |
| Journal | J Microbiol Methods |
| Abstract |
Fluorocarbon solvents have been shown to promote bacterial growth; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we show that these solvents scavenge bacterially produced indole, reducing its inhibitory effect on growth. These findings can be utilized to improve bacterial culture methods and explore the roles of indole in bacterial communities. |
