The porin and the permeating antibiotic: A selective diffusion barrier in gram-negative bacteria [PDF]

, 2008
Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for a large proportion of antibiotic resistant bacterial diseases. These bacteria have a complex cell envelope that comprises an outer membrane and an inner membrane that delimit the periplasm.
