Antimicrobial resistance refers to the resistance of a microbial organism to a drug or an agent that was previously effective in eliminating the organism or checking its growth and multiplication. Drug resistant strains generally evolve over a period of time in nature.
In order to get inside the cell, these molecules must pass through porins, which are protein channels that span the outer membrane. Antimicrobial resistance mechanisms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Gram-negative bacteria possess proteins called porins in their outer membranes that, when altered, reduce or halt drug absorption.
