The comment drops a 'pro tip' that they use ciproflaxin in their plant lab as a growth inhibitor - writes confused criticisms of a study warning of antibiotic resistance accelerated by synergies with common herbicides - its beyond irony really.
The CIP only experiment was conducted to test a separate hypothesis and clearly sub sectioned: " Herbicide-induced changes in MSC can occur without a change in MIC .... To test this, we measured the frequency at which acquired ciprofloxacin resistance arose during culture in the combination of Cip + Kamba + E. coli "
Its no coincidence that various antibiotics have herbicidal qualities - the study is conducted to gain some information on potential interplay of these classes of substance.
