Permeability and susceptibility of Escherichia coli to beta-lactam compounds

D Clark. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1981 Feb.

Abstract

In general, the susceptibility of envelope mutants of Escherichia coli to beta-lactam compounds correlates well with the permeability of these antibiotics through the outer membrane. However, several mutants were isolated which, although apparently freely permeable to penicillins, showed only marginal increases in susceptibility to these agents.
