Propyl-5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbodithioate (HMPC): a new bacteriostatic agent against methicillin—resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract The emergence of Staphylococcus aureus strains resistant to ‘last resort’ antibiotics compels the development of new antimicrobials against this important human pathogen.
