Comparative study of synergistic antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin-capped gold nanoparticles under different ultrasound frequency.

Sonodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (SACT), as a novel anti-infective program, has received tremendous attention due to its good tissue penetration depth and low invasion. Ultrasound (US) frequency was one of the important parameters for SACT. To investigate the influence of different US frequencies on sonodynamic antimicrobial activity of ciprofloxacin-capped gold nanoparticles (CIP:GNPs).

Exonuclease-III Assisted the Target Recycling Coupling with Hybridization Chain Reaction for Sensitive mecA Gene Analysis by Using PGM.

In the field of neonatal infections nursing, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major bacterial pathogen. Here, we present a portable biosensor for MRSA detection that is both highly sensitive and portable, owing to its implementation on the personal glucose meter (PGM) platform. The H probe was fixed on the magnetic bead for mecA gene analysis.
