Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA): antibiotic-resistance and the biofilm phenotype.

MedChemComm, 2019
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is an asymptomatic colonizer of 30% of all human beings. While generally benign, antibiotic resistance contributes to the success of S. aureus as a human pathogen.
