Deep eutectic solvent enhances antibacterial activity of a modular lytic enzyme against Acinetobacter baumannii by Aleksandra Maria Kocot, Tomasz Swebocki, Karolina Ciemińska, Adrianna Łupkowska, Małgorzata Kapusta, Dennis Grimon, Ewa Laskowska, Anna-Karina Kaczorowska, Tadeusz Kaczorowski, Rabah Boukherroub, Yves Briers, Magdalena Plotka

“…This combination displayed additive effects for most strains and synergism for extensively antibiotic-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Bacillus subtilis. The subsequent evaluation revealed that MLE-15 eliminated planktonic cells of A. baumannii RUH134, but was ineffective against matured biofilms. …”
