Cosmetic preservative exposure promotes persistent and antibiotic resistance of staphylococci by chromosome mutations.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety - 15 Sept 2026

Hao Desong, Xu Zhen

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Antibiotic-resistant staphylococci are common skin colonisers and an important public-health concern. The role of cosmetic preservatives in selecting resistance is unclear. We examined whether exposure to widely used preservatives promotes antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus spp. and explored underlying mechanisms. METHODS: Methicillin-resistant and susceptible S. aureus (MRSA and MSSA) and S....
