Metabolic profiling unveils enhanced antibacterial synergy of polymyxin B and teixobactin against multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii

Abstract This untargeted metabolomics study investigated the synergistic antibacterial activity of polymyxin B and Leu10-teixobactin, a depsipeptide inhibitor of cell wall biosynthesis. Checkerboard microdilution assays revealed a significant synergy against polymyxin-susceptible and -resistant A. b...
