  • Bacterial strains the inventors used the following strains of Staphylococcus aureus :
  • Compound 053 (see synthesis in example 1) is prepared in pure DMSO (Sigma) at a concentration of 20 mg/mL. It will then be diluted in milliQ water to obtain a stock solution of 1000 ⁇ g/mL.

  • Example 2-2 Bacillus subtilis
  • Bacterial strains the inventors used
  • Figures 4-6 show the color difference ( ) and the spectrofluorometric difference ( Figures 5 and 6) observed on the different strains of Bacillus subtilis .
  • Strain A is wild-type B. subtilis 168 (DSM 402)
  • strain B, BmrA+++ is a BmrA overexpressing mutant

  • Strain A is a normal wild type strain expressing normal efflux activity; compound 053 is therefore partially effluent and the cell pellet appears pale pink, suggesting mild to moderate activity. Similar activity is confirmed and quantified using fluorescence spectroscopy ( Figures 5 and 6).
  • the wild-type strain (DSM 402) producing low levels of pumps exhibits intermediate levels of fluorescence ( Figures 5 and 6, curve and histogram).

  • WT wild strain
  • PatA-PatB an ABC transporter of Streptococcus pneumoniae allowing the transport of molecules outside the cell involved in the resistance of this pathogen to fluoroquinolone type antibiotics
  • DEL strain deleted of PatA-PatB
  • Bacterial strains the inventors used

  • Compound 053 therefore makes it possible to qualitatively and quantitatively distinguish a strain overexpressing an ABC PatA-PatB transporter from a strain not overexpressing or not expressing this transporter at all.
  • Example 2-4 Escherichia coli
  • PBP potassium phosphate buffer
  • Figures 11 to 16 show the color difference ( Figures 11 and 14) and the spectrofluorimetric difference ( Figures 12, 13, 15 and 16) observed on the different strains of Escherichia coli.
