3. 2. On Fusidic Acid Resistance in Staphylococcus Aureus

   Författare :Tobias Norström; Diarmaid P. Hughes; Bruce R. Levin; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Microbiology; S. aureus; SCV; fusidic acid; FusE; Mikrobiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Controlling bacterial infections with antibiotics is central to modern health care. However, increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics threatens effective therapy. This thesis concerns the use of the antibiotic fusidic acid, and novel analogues of fusidic acid, to treat topical infections caused by the bacterial pathogen Staphylococcu aureus. LÄS MER
