This study shows that phage presence reduces antibiotic efflux in bacteria, enhancing antibiotic efficacy and enabling lower concentrations for treatment.

This study shows that nutrient and salt depletion in E. coli increases glucose accumulation rates at the translational and posttranslational levels, challenging the view that growth rate alone reflects metabolic status.

The paper identifies fast-growing bacterial variants that avoid antibiotic accumulation and survive treatment without genetic mutations, challenging the current understanding of antibiotic resistance mechanisms.

This study quantifies antibiotic uptake in E. coli using microfluidics and microscopy, showing growth phase impacts drug accumulation more than transport pathways, and develops a mathematical model to predict kinetics.
