Mild magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia enhances the susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus biofilm to antibiotics

Objective A critical challenge in the treatment of biofilm infection is the capacity of biofilm-grown bacteria to develop resistance to traditional antimicrobial therapies. The objective of this study was to validate the therapeutic potential of magnetic nanoparticle/alternating magnetic field (MNP/...
