In Vitro Activity of Linezolid, Daptomycin and N-acetylcysteine Agents on Staphylococcus Aureus Biofilms in the Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Model

Abstract

AIM: To examine the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) alone and in combination with linezolid (LIN) and daptomycin (DAPT) on methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) biofilm formation. MATERIAL and METHODS: Twelve groups (each containing six mol
