A synthetic peptide sensitizes multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa to antibiotics for more than two hours and permeabilizes its envelope for twenty hours.

Consistent with this observation, P4–9 treated cells grown for 20 h in peptide-free medium showed a highly significant level of fluorescence when exposed to NPN, compared to untreated cells (Fig. 5 a).
