Breaking the Permeability Barrier of Escherichia coli by Controlled Hyperporination of the Outer Membrane

In Gram-negative bacteria, a synergistic relationship between slow passive uptake of antibiotics across the outer membrane and active efflux transporters creates a permeability barrier, which efficiently reduces the effective concentrations of antibiotics in cells and, hence, their activities. To an...
