Probiotic‐Based Approaches for Sustainable Control of Infectious Risk in Mass Transport: Current Data and Future Perspectives

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2025.
High‐traffic areas, such as mass transportation environments, can have a significant impact on infection transmission, and chemical disinfection may favour the selection of drug‐resistant microbes. Probiotic‐based approaches have the potential to be a novel and ecologically sustainable option for controlling bioburden and preventing infections ...

Synergistic antibacterial activity of baicalin in combination with oxacillin sodium against methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 608-621, April 2025.
The bacterial cell membrane and cell wall are the primary targets of baicalin. Baicalin increases the permeability of bacterial membranes, allowing oxacillin sodium to easily penetrate the cells and effectively exert its antimicrobial activity. Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) poses a challenge for clinical treatment and combining ...

Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec) in coagulase negative staphylococci

open access: yesMedicina Universitaria, 2015
AbstractCoagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are among the main causative agents of bacteremia. Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus haemolyticus are the CoNS species most frequently isolated. These species are often associated with infections in immunocompromised patients who have a medical device implant.

An unexpected location of the arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) in a USA300-related MRSA strain.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), the arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) was initially described in USA300 (t008-ST8) where it is located downstream of the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec).
