INVISIBLE UNCULTURABLES. “Historically, far more cells have been seen by direct observation than could not be enticed to develop into colonies. Measurements of the ratio of culturable to actual cells range from 10(-2) to 10(-8), indicating that the vast majority of environmental prokaryotic cells cannot be studied in the laboratory, rendering them—until now—effectively invisible to science.”
