A Drug Combination Approach Targeting Both Growing Bacteria and Dormant Persisters Eradicate Persistent <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Biofilm Infection

2019-06-28

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus can cause a variety of infections, many of which involve biofilm infections. Inside biofilms, growing and non-growing bacteria such as persisters co-exist, making it challenging to completely eradicate a persistent and recurrent infection with current treatments.
