Help! Anyone ever measured water potential (Ψ, expressed in –MPa) of LB medium? As it is a complex, undefined mix it is not possible to calculate it with the famous formula 𝛹 = θ𝑖𝐶𝑅𝑇 for single solutes. And it happens that such a Ψ has a dramatic effect in gene expression!

Happy to share our article on microscale pH in the #hyphosphere from @bijing_xiong @UFZ_de; published in@ISMEComms
https://t.co/wUD7tKYLaA
Using novel bacterial pH #bioreporters we analyzed in vivo hyphosphere pH at microscale discovering steep & stable pH gradients.
