Disruption of the Cytoplasmic Membrane Structure and Barrier Function Underlies the Potent Antiseptic Activity of Octenidine in Gram-Positive Bacteria

The antimicrobial killing mechanism of octenidine (OCT), a well-known antiseptic is poorly understood. We recently reported its interaction with Gram-negative bacteria by insertion of OCT into the outer and cytoplasmic membrane of Escherichia coli, resulting in a chaotic lipid rearrangement and rapi...
