Abstract
⺠We aimed to evaluate the combination effect of pleurocidin with antibiotics. ⺠Most combinations between pleurocidin and antibiotics showed synergistic effects. ⺠We investigated the mechanism(s) involved in the synergistic effects. ⺠The synergisms were induced by hydroxyl radical production and membrane damage. ⺠Additionally, we indentified that pleurocidin exerted antibiofilm effect.
