Interspecies synergism and antagonism induce differential and potentially exploitable susceptibility to various classes of antibiotics in a wound-like polymicrobial community

Caroline Laughlin-Black, Viviann Robles, Sabrina Wilson, Allie C. Smith, Catherine A. Wakeman

This study shows that polymicrobial communities can alter antibiotic susceptibilities through synergism and antagonism, and demonstrates that combining gentamicin and cephalexin can effectively clear such infections.
