Reversible decrease in swimming motility accompanies emergent β-lactam antibiotic resistance in Escherichia coli

L. Stabryla, W. Ackerman, J. N. Dootz, S. L. Servetas, S. A. Jackson, Jason G. Kralj

This study shows that reduced swimming motility accompanies B-lactam antibiotic resistance in E. coli through efflux mechanisms, with motility recovery after antibiotic removal.
