RESUMO
Anhydrobiotic engineering aims to improve desiccation tolerance in living organisms by adopting the strategies of anhydrobiosis. This was achieved for Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas putida by osmotic induction of intracellular trehalose synthesis and by drying from trehalose solutions, resulting in long-term viability in the dried state.
