Protocol for evaluating the abilities of diverse nitroaromatic prodrug metabolites to exit a model Gram negative bacterial vector

Bacterial-directed enzyme-prodrug therapy (BDEPT) uses tumour-tropic bacteria armed with a genetically-encoded prodrug-converting enzyme to sensitise tumours to a systemically-administered prodrug. A strong bystander effect (i.e., efficient bacteria-to-tumour transfer of activated prodrug metabolite...
