Title: Plasmid-mediated tetracycline resistance in escherichia coli involves increased efflux of the antibiotic
Abstract: The possibility that decreased accumulation of tetracycline by plasmid-carrying strains of Escherichiacoli involves increased efflux as well as reduced influx was investigated. Both decreased uptake and increased efflux of tetracycline occurred in resistant strains under conditions where bacteria were still metabolically functional.
