BACKGROUND: Osteomyelitis is a difficult-to-treat infection that regularly involves prolonged use of systemic antibiotics. Dalbavancin has demonstrated activity against Gram-positive isolates, and has been considered as a candidate for the treatment ...
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for human health and animal nutrition. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inhibitory activities of Se-enriched lactic acid bacteria (LAB), Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus ...
UNLABELLED: Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous molecule with many critical biological functions that depend on its concentration. At high levels, NO provides broad-spectrum antibacterial effects through both its pathogen inhibition and killing abilit...
