Much has happened here since the local news media trumpeted the first Australian COVID-19 fatality, and stirred up a medieval fear of contagion. We now need to take a step back to examine the logic underlying the use of our limited COVID-19...
Sodium salicylate interferes with quorum-sensing-regulated virulence in chronic wound isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in simulated wound fluid [0.03%]
水杨酸钠干扰铜绿假单胞菌在模拟伤口液中群体感应调节的毒力

Introduction. An important factor for delayed healing of chronic wounds is the presence of bacteria. Quorum sensing (QS), a cell density-dependent signalling system, controls the production of many virulence factors and biofilm formation in...
Molecular identification of Nocardia species causing endophthalmitis using multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA): a 10-year perspective [0.03%]
