Comparison of the action of different proteases on virulence properties related to the staphylococcal surface
12 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of five different proteases belonging to two different families on Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis strains. METHODS AND RESULTS: We used three serine proteases and two metalloproteases in single species biofilm formation assays and in human cell invasion processes. Following each protease incubation with bacterial...
