Identification of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin resistant S. aureus in jail populations

Access Microbiology, 2019
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.

Conjugated Porphyrin Polymer With Superior Charge Transfer for Photodynamic‐Immunomodulatory Prevention of CIED Infection in Diabetes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.
