Synergistic combination of two antimicrobial agents closing each other’s mutant selection windows to prevent antimicrobial resistance
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance seriously threatened human health. Combination therapy is generally an effective strategy to fight resistance, while some data on its effects are conflicting. To explore the reasons, the fractional inhibitory concentration indexes (FICIs) of three designed combinati...
