The effect of metformin on the outer membrane permeability and membrane integrity of A. baumannii A156. A Metformin destroys outer membrane permeability with the increasing concentrations of metformin used. B No effect on outer membrane permeability in A. baumannii with the treatment of minocycline alone; however, when metformin was added, the outer membrane permeability significantly increased. C No effect on membrane integrity after treatment with metformin. Data are presented as mean ± SD, *p ≤ 0.05; **p ≤ 0.01
