Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To test the activity of two copper-based biocides, CuAL42 and CuWB50, and benzalkonium chloride against 169 isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pulsotype USA300, a virulent, multiply resistant, widespread clone in the USA. METHODS: Tests including MIC, MBC and time-kill studies were performed multiple times. RESULTS: The MIC range, MIC(50) and MIC(90) (0.59-18.75, 4.69 and...
