Photolysis of Staphyloxanthin in Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Potentiates Killing by Reactive Oxygen Species
Abstract Confronted with the severe situation that the pace of resistance acquisition is faster than the clinical introduction of new antibiotics, health organizations are calling for effective approaches to combat methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. Here, an approach to t...
