Bacterial tolerance to antibiotics causes reduction in efficacy in antimicrobial treatment of chronic and recurrent infections. Nutrient availability is one major factor that determines the degree of phenotypic antibiotic tolerance. In an attempt to test if specific nutrients can reverse phenotypic tolerance, we identified N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) as a potent tolerance-suppressing agent and showed that it could strongly re-sensitize a tolerant population of E. coli to ampicillin. Such re-sensitization effect was attributable t
