Bacteria naturally produce membrane vesicles (MVs), which have been shown to contribute to the spread of multi‐drug resistant bacteria (MDR) by delivering antibiotic‐resistant substances to antibiotic‐susceptible bacteria. Here, we aim to show that MVs from Gram‐positive bacteria are capable of transferring β‐lactam antibiotic‐resistant substances to antibiotic‐sensitive Gram‐negative bacteria.
