Addition of β-lactam antibiotics to growing cultures of bacteria inhibit synthesis of the bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan accompanied by killing (loss of viable titer) and lysis (physical disintegration) of the cells. However, it has also been well established that these antibiotics are not effect...
