Bacterial resistance to antibiotics as a function of outer membrane permeability
Abstract
The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria serves as barrier to permeation. Transport across this barrier often occurs through channels created by porins. Changes in these porins can account for antibiotic resistance. The combination of a permeability barrier and beta-lactamases in the periplasmic space leads to a situation in which concentrations, at the target, of even third-generation cephalosporins, can be significantly decreased.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
