In vitro activity of tedizolid and other comparator drugs in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates in skin and soft tissue infections in seven Colombian hospitals.

Biomedica : revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud
Introduction: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes severe skin and soft tissue infections in hospitals and, more recently, in the community. Tedizolid is a new second-generation oxazolidinone derivative having greater in vitro po...

Imidazolium ionic liquids as effective antiseptics and disinfectants against drug resistant S. aureus: In silico and in vitro studies.

Computational biology and chemistry
This paper describes Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSAR) studies, molecular docking and in vitro antibacterial activity of several potent imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) against S. aureus ATCC 25923 and its clinical isolate. Sm...

Synergism of prenylflavonoids from Morus alba root bark against clinical MRSA isolates.

Phytomedicine : international journal of phytotherapy and phytopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a thorny problem in current anti-infective therapeutics and a challenge of new drug development. Plant prenylflavonoids possess anti-MRSA activity, but few of the prenylflavon...

Reduced methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation in bone cavities by photodynamic therapy.

Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy
UNLABELLED: Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative for the treatment of infectious bone lesions in the oral cavity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of PDT using blue LED associated with curcu...

Antibacterial mechanisms of a novel type picosecond laser-generated silver-titanium nanoparticles and their toxicity to human cells.

International journal of nanomedicine
In this study, we explored the antibacterial mechanisms for a novel type of Ag-TiO compound nanoparticles (NPs) produced from an Ag-TiO alloy using a picosecond laser and evaluated the toxicity of the Ag-TiO NPs to a range of human cell types. Transm...

Antimicrobial efficacy of Syzygium antisepticum plant extract against Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus and its application potential with cooked chicken.

Food microbiology
For the past decades, there has been a growing demand for natural antimicrobials in the food industry. Plant extracts have attracted strong research interests due to their wide-spectrum antimicrobial activities, but only a limited number have been in...

Diaryltriazenes as antibacterial agents against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Mycobacterium smegmatis.

European journal of medicinal chemistry
Diaryltriazene derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial properties. Initial experiments showed some of these compounds to have activity against both methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococus aureus (MRSA) and Mycobacter...
