Bactericidal and Anti-biofilm Activity of the Retinoid Compound CD437 Against Enterococcus faecalis
Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis), a biofilm-forming pathogen, causes nosocomial infections. In recent years, drug resistance by enterococci has become increasingly severe due to widespread antibiotic abuse. Therefore, novel antibacterial agents are urgently needed. In this study, the synthetic re...
