Guanidinium-pendant oligofluorene for rapid and specific identification of antibiotics with membrane-disrupting ability

Abstract

A new method was developed through an efficient Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from guanidinium-pendant oligofluorene to green fluorescent protein (GFP) for specifically screening membrane-disrupting antibiotics to which bacteria have difficulty developing resistance.
