The usage of biomedical implants is currently rapidly increasing due to ageing populations.
Consequently, the number of biomaterial-associated infections increases, which challenges …

Biofilm formation is an important virulence factor for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA). The extracellular matrix of MRSA biofilms contains significant amounts of …

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) biofilm is the major cause of failure of implant infection
treatment that results in heavy social and economic burden on individuals, families, and …

Biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus are one of the predominant causes of implant-
associated infections (IAIs). Previous studies have found that S. aureus nucleases nuc1 and …

Medical implants are increasingly being utilised to either restore function after injury or
disease. This has presented two main challenges that threaten long-term implant …

A major contributor to biomaterial associated infection (BAI) is Staphylococcus aureus. This
pathogen produces a protective biofilm, making eradication difficult. Biofilms are composed …

Biomaterial implants increase the risk of microbial infections due to the biofilm mode of
growth of infecting bacteria on implant materials, in which bacteria are protected against …

Biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus is a serious complication to the use of medical
implants. A central part of the pathogenesis relies on S. aureus' ability to adhere to host …
