Chemiosmotic Mechanism of Antimicrobial Activity of Ag(+) in Vibrio cholerae

Although the antimicrobial effects of silver salts were noticed long ago, the molecular mechanism of the bactericidal action of Ag(+) in low concentrations has not been elucidated. Here, we show that low concentrations of Ag(+) induce a massive proton leakage through the Vibrio cholerae membrane, wh...
