Glycosylated cationic block co-beta-peptide as antimicrobial and anti-biofilm agents against Gram-positive bacteria
Antimicrobial resistance to last-resort antibiotics is a serious and chronic global problem. The treatment of bacterial infection is further hindered by the presence of biofilm and metabolically inactive persisters. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major pathogen causing high...
