Biofilm formation leads to the failure of antimicrobial therapy. Thus, biofilm prevention is a
desirable goal of antimicrobial research. In this study, the efficacy of antibiotics (doxycycline …

Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus of the USA300 lineage
is emerging as an important cause of medical device-related infection. However, few factors …

Infections with the leading nosocomial pathogen Staphylococcus epidermidis are
characterized by biofilm development on indwelling medical devices. We demonstrate that …

Biofilm formation has been shown to be critical to the success of uropathogens. Although
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a common cause of urinary tract infections, its biofilm …

Aspirin has provided clear benefits to human health. But salicylic acid (SAL)-the main aspirin
biometabolite-exerts several effects on eukaryote and prokaryote cells. SAL can affect, for …

Although Staphylococcus aureus is part of the normal body flora, heavy usage of antibiotics
has resulted in the emergence of methicillin-resistant strains (MRSA). MRSA can form …
