The outer membrane (OM) permeabilisation assays of E.coli in the treatment of the peptides at (a) 1 × MICs, (b) 2 × MICs and (c) 4 × MICs. Fluorescence intensity enhanced by the uptake of 1-N-phenylnaphthylamine (NPN) in the OM was monitored. The polymyxin B (10 µg/mL) was employed as a positive control. Data represent means ± standard error of the mean of three independent experiments.
