Characterization of a New Staphylococcus aureus Kayvirus Harboring a Lysin Active against Biofilms

7 Apr 2018

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most relevant opportunistic pathogens involved in many biofilm-associated diseases, and is a major cause of nosocomial infections, mainly due to the increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains. Consequently, alternative methods to eradicate the pathogen are urgent. It has been previously shown that polyvalent staphylococcal kayviruses and their derived endolysins are...
