Previous work in this department has demonstrated that changes accompanying the acquisition of chloramphenicol resistance in Salmonella indicate structural changes in the surface of resistant organisms. Like changes have been indicated by other workers investigating both Gram-positive and Gram-negative chloramphenicol-resistant organisms. The additional observations of increased cross resistance to other antibiotics such as penicillin implies a possible non-specific mechanism of resistance such as an impermeability barrier in the cell.
