Cold Atmospheric-Pressure Plasma Caused Protein Damage in Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Cells in Biofilms

Biofilms formed by multidrug-resistant bacteria are a major cause of hospital-acquired infections. Cold atmospheric-pressure plasma (CAP) is attractive for sterilization, especially to disrupt biofilms formed by multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is not clear....
