Biofilms in Surgical Site Infections: Recent Advances and Novel Prevention and Eradication Strategies

Andriy Hrynyshyn et al.

Summary: This review discusses new strategies to control and eradicate biofilms in surgical site infections (SSI), including the use of nanotechnology-based composites and natural plant-based products. It provides an overview of new therapeutic agents and approaches to control multidrug-resistant pathogenic microorganisms, particularly when biofilms are present in SSIs. It also discusses detection and real-time monitoring systems to improve biofilm control strategies and diagnosis of human infections.

Therapeutic Strategies To Counteract Antibiotic Resistance in MRSA Biofilm-Associated Infections

Stella Cascioferro et al.

Summary: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of persistent human infections, with the ability to colonize asymptomatically and cause moderate to severe infections. It is considered a superbug due to its high morbidity and mortality rates, as well as its resistance to most antibiotics on the market. Its formation of biofilms on various surfaces is believed to be the primary means of its antibiotic resistance and widespread presence. Development of new anti-virulence strategies is crucial in combating MRSA infections associated with biofilms.

Staphylococcus lugdunensis: a Skin Commensal with Invasive Pathogenic Potential

Simon Heilbronner et al.

Summary: Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a species of coagulase-negative staphylococcus that causes serious infections in humans similar to those of S. aureus. It encodes a diverse array of virulence factors but less diverse than S. aureus. Additionally, it expresses a novel peptide antibiotic and a unique mechanism for extracting heme.

Hierarchically hybrid biocoatings on Ti implants for enhanced antibacterial activity and osteogenesis

Zheng Wang et al.

Summary: Hierarchically hybrid biocoatings on Ti implants are developed in this study by incorporating polydopamine, ZnO nanoparticles, and chitosan/nanocrystal hydroxyapatite. These coatings enhance antibacterial activity and osteogenesis, offering a promising alternative for developing Ti implants with long-lifetime bioactivity.
