Synthesis, Conformal Analysis, and Antibody Binding of Staphylococcus aureus Capsular Polysaccharide Type 5 Oligosaccharides

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A set of conjugation‐ready Staphylococcus aureus serotype 5 oligosaccharides has been generated using a stereoselective [3 + 3n] glycosylation strategy. The structures differ in chain length (up to three repeating units) and O‐ and N‐acetylation pattern.

Nosocomial Infection Update [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1998
Historically, staphylococci, pseudomonads, and Escherichia coli have been the nosocomial infection troika; nosocomial pneumonia, surgical wound infections, and vascular access-related bacteremia have caused the most illness and death in hospitalized patients; and intensive care units have been the epicenters of antibiotic resistance.
