MRSA-Triggered Disassembly of an Immune-Recruiting NIR Probe for Bacterial Imaging and Clearance. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
A bacteria–immune cell‐bridging supramolecular amphiphile, Dman‐C11, undergoes MRSA membrane‐triggered disassembly to activate NIR fluorescence and photodynamic killing, inducing ferroptosis‐like bacterial death and immune‐assisted clearance in wound infection and keratitis models.

An observational prospective study of topical acidified nitrite for killing methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in contaminated wounds [PDF]

, 2011
Background Endogenous nitric oxide (NO) kills bacteria and other organisms as part of the innate immune response. When nitrite is exposed to low pH, NO is generated and has been used as an NO delivery system to treat skin infections.

What is the size and nature of the current need for single room isolation in hospital, and how does success or 'failure to isolate' patients affect the control of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)? [PDF]

, 2007
Healthcare-associated infections, in particular those caused by antibiotic-resistant organisms, are a major cause of morbidity, mortality and increased cost to healthcare providers and MRSA are, in terms of prevalence, by far the most significant ...
