The development of novel antimicrobial peptides with activity against MRSA

MRSA is a significant pathogen, which can cause a range of minor and major infections both in the hospital and community environments. MRSA is developing resistance to many antibiotics, including vancomycin, which is now the first choice antibiotic to treat MRSA infections in the UK. This together w...
