Time-programmable drug dosing allows the manipulation, suppression and reversal of antibiotic drug resistance in vitro

It is unclear whether strategies involving antibiotic cycling can efficiently control the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Here, Yoshidaet al. show that the evolution of multi-drug-resistant bacteria in vitrocan be manipulated by administering pairs of antibiotics and switching between th...
