Provided herein are improved methods of characterizing antibiotic agents according to the effect the antibiotic agent has on a bacterial cell. This allows for rapid screening of potential antibiotic agents, e.g. , for improved antibiotics, and classification of antibiotic agents. The present techniques also allow for profiling of bacterial strains for susceptibility of antibiotic agents and, e.g. , determining which are most susceptible to particular modes of action. |
