New Quinone Antibiotics against Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus. [PDF]
There is an urgent need for the development of new antibiotics. Here, we describe the inhibitory activity of new quinone compounds against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC® 43300), methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (ATCC® 29213), and two clinical isolates from Chile (ISP-213 and ISP-214). We observed 99.9% reduction in viability within 2

Staphylococcus aureus:Methicillin‐SusceptibleS. aureusto Methicillin‐ResistantS. aureusand Vancomycin‐ResistantS. aureus [PDF]
The evolution of methicillin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has demanded serious review of antimicrobial use and development of new agents and revised approaches to prevent and overcome drug resistance. Depending on local conditions and patient risk factors, empirical therapy of suspected S.

Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus Infections among Patients in the Emergency Department [PDF]
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is increasingly recognized in infections among persons in the community without established risk factors for MRSA.We enrolled adult patients with acute, purulent skin and soft-tissue infections presenting to 11 university-affiliated emergency departments during the month of August 2004.

Identification of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin resistant S. aureus in jail populations
Staphylococcus aureus is the leading cause of soft tissue and skin infection, but also causes pneumonia, endocarditis, and bone infection. The same infections can be caused by methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), but are much more difficult to treat because MRSA is highly resistant to antibiotics.

Bacterial biofilms often cause medical complications and there has been a great deal of interest in the discovery of small-molecule agents that can inhibit the formation of biofilms. Among these agents, it has been reported that several d-amino acids, such as d-Leu, d-Trp, d-Tyr, and d-Met, exhibit weak inhibitory activity toward bacterial biofilm ...

New Chromogenic Identification and Detection of Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus [PDF]
ABSTRACT This paper describes a new chromogenic plate medium, CHROMagar Staph aureus (CHROMagar, Paris, France), for the identification of Staphylococcus aureus on the basis of colony pigmentation. The abilities of CHROMagar Staph aureus, thermostable nuclease (DNase), and mannitol salt agar (MSA) to ...
