Optimized Silica-Binding Peptide-Mediated Delivery of Bactericidal Lysin Efficiently Prevents <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> from Adhering to Device Surfaces
Staphylococcal-associated device-related infections (DRIs) represent a significant clinical challenge causing major medical and economic sequelae. Bacterial colonization, proliferation, and biofilm formation after adherence to surfaces of the indwelling device are probably the primary cause of DRIs....
