Advances in methods for rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus

Analytical Sciences
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) are important pathogens that are closely associated with hospital-acquired and community-acquired infections. Rapid and accurate detection methods are important for early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. This paper reviews the latest research progress in the field of rapid

Two‐Dimensional Conjugated Metal Organic Frameworks with Dual Metal Catalytic Active Sites Enhance POD Activity for Antibacterial Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new class of Cu, Ni bimetallic 2D cMOF (CuNi‐HHTP 2D cMOF) featuring dual catalytic sites and high delocalized electronic structure for boosting POD performance. The CuNi‐HHTP 2D‐cMOF enhances the conversion kinetics of H2O2 to ROS, which subsequently enhances antibacterial activity and accelerates the healing of oral ulcers, with macroscopic wound ...

Microbial Susceptibility and Plasmid Profiles of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Susceptible S. aureus [PDF]

Jundishapur Journal of Microbiology, 2014
Today, significant increase in the prevalence and emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a serious public health concern and is likely to have a dramatic negative impact on many current medical practices. Therefore, identification of MRSA strains is important for both clinical and epidemiological implications.The present ...

Harmonizing Rigidity and Flexibility: Embedding COF Quantum Dots Into Extracellular Matrix Gel as Carbon Monoxide Depot for Acoustically Triggered Time‐Programmable Anti‐Infective Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rigid‑flexible integrated CO depot is engineered by embedding rigid COFQDs into a flexible ECM gel network. The rigid framework enables high‑capacity CO storage and sonodynamic bacterial killing, while the flexible ECM gel controls sustained CO release, collectively eradicating multidrug‑resistant infection and promoting scarless healing.

Prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in residents who died with pressure ulcers in residential aged care facilities

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: As mobility in the elderly declines, dependence on care increases, and that care involves preventing pressure ulcers (PUs). PUs may become colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, causing cross-infection problems and ...

Nasal carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in university students

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010
In a study of university students, the percentage nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus was 40.8% (102/250). Of the isolates, MIC50 of methicillin was 0.5 μg/mL and MIC90 was 1 μg/mL.

Nasopharyngeal Carriage Rate, Risk Factors, and Co‐Resistance Patterns of Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Ethiopia: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
This systematic review and meta‐analysis show that nasopharyngeal carriage of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus remains an important public health concern in Ethiopia. High resistance to commonly used antibiotics and significant associations with prior hospitalization and antibiotic use highlight the need for strengthened antimicrobial ...

Pyrazole‐Derived Antibacterial Compounds Effectively Treat Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Infections by Inhibiting Aspartate Transcarbamoylase

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unveils a novel antibacterial mechanism against MRSA, in which the compound Py‐27 selectively targets and inhibits aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase), a key enzyme in pyrimidine synthesis. This inhibition disrupts DNA replication, induces oxidative damage, leading to potent bactericidal activity.
