Researchers at Mount Sinai, in collaboration with researchers at New York University, have published a study in Cell Host and Microbe that sheds light on the mechanisms behind the severity, or virulence, of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) blood stream infections.
A promising approach to control Staphylococcus aureus bacterial colonization in people-;using a probiotic instead of antibiotics-;was safe and highly effective in a Phase 2 clinical trial.
University of Queensland researchers have developed a long lasting surface spray that has the potential to kill viruses such as COVID-19 and potentially deadly bacteria.
