Journal Article
Vince, R. V., Madden, L. A., Alonso, C. M., Savoie, H., Boyle, R. W., Todman, M., Paget, T., & Greenman, J. (2011). Identification of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-specific peptides for targeted photoantimicrobial chemotherapy. Photochemical & photobiological sciences : an international journal, 10(4), 515-522. https://doi.org/10.1039/c0pp00267d

The increasing prevalence of multi-drug resistant bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), necessitates development of alternative modes of bacterial targeting which are not hindered by antibiotic resistance and minimise...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been widely used in recent years for the treatment of cancers. However the growing problem of drug resistance in bacteria has led to PDT being used to treat bacterial infections in a new type of therapy called Photodyna...

Detection and differentiation on pathogenic Acanthamoeba (1999)
Thesis
Khan, N. A. (1999). Detection and differentiation on pathogenic Acanthamoeba. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217566

Acanthamoeba are free-living and opportunistic protozoa that are ubiquitous in nature. Human infection due to Acanthamoeba can involve the brain, skin, lung and eyes. However, eye infection, Acanthamoeba keratitis, is the most common infection. Acant... Read More about Detection and differentiation on pathogenic Acanthamoeba.
