Unraveling the mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia and sepsis: a systematic approach to better characterize host/pathogen interactions

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Staphylococcus aureus is a pathobiont whose primary human reservoirs are nares, pharynx, intestines, and skin. When specific conditions in the host are altered, it can cause a wide variety of human diseases, including bacteremia and sepsis.

Colonisation of antibiotic resistant bacteria in a cohort of HIV infected children in Ghana

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2017
Antibiotic use not only selects for resistance in pathogenic bacteria, but also in commensal flora of exposed individuals. Little is known epidemiologically about antibiotic resistance in relation to people with HIV infection in sub-Saharan Africa.

Multifunctional Wound Dressings: Melt Electrowritten Scaffolds Combined With Phytotherapeutic Composite Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing prevalence of impaired wounds, caused mainly by diabetes or aging, alongside the growing number of bacterial infections, indicates the need for alternative tissue engineering solutions. In this study, we developed novel melt electrowritten (MEW) polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds incorporated with an alginate (Alg)–gelatin (Gel ...
