Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive bacterium that responsible for severe nosocomial infections. The rise of multidrug-resistant strains, which can pose significant health threats, prompts the development new treatment interventions, and much attention has been directed at prophylactic therapeutic vaccination strategies. Capsular polysaccharides (CPs) are key protective elements S. cell wall have proposed as promising candidate antigens. Thirteen different CP serotypes identified to...
Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are major antimicrobial-resistant pathogens that often synergize in polymicrobial infections, such as chronic wound infections. These notorious increasingly resistant bacteria contribute significantly to reduced antibiotic efficacy. Despite their substantial clinical burden, the urgent need combat bacterial resistance extensive research efforts, no vaccines currently exist for either bacterium. Glycoconjugate vaccines, which extend range of...
The introduction of glycoconjugate vaccines marks an important point in the fight against various infectious diseases.
