The methods used to generate antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains can be labour-intensive, costly, lengthy and/or prone to plate-to-plate variation. We propose a simple, inexpensive and easily replicated method to expose bacteria to a continuous gradient of antibiotic concentration, providing an environment of positive selective pressure for evolution of antibiotic-resistant strains.
