Establishment of a new methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus animal model of osteomyelitis
2014
Purpose
The increase in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections is currently a major health care problem. Vancomycin is still often the first-line anti-microbiological agent for treating such infections; however, a recent decline in efficacy of vancomycin in MRSA infections has raised concerns and accelerated the search for new antibiotics. The aim of this study was to establish a MRSA peri-implant osteomyelitis animal model for future testing of new anti-microbiological agents under typical MRSA infection conditions.
