Antibiotic-Induced Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Release from Salmonella typhi: Delay between Killing by Ceftazidime and Imipenem and Release of LPS

---

It has been suggested that the antibiotic-induced release of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an important cause
of the development of septic shock in patients treated for severe infections caused by gram-negative bacteria.
b-Lactam antibiotics change the integrity of the bacterial cell envelope by binding to penicillin-binding
proteins (PBP) in the membrane and thus may affect the amount of LPS that is released and the kinetics of
that release
