Abstract: ABSTRACT The Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variant (SCV) phenotype has been associated with relapsing and antibiotic-refractory infections. However, little is known about the activities of antibiotics on clinical SCVs. Here, we demonstrated that SCVs without detectable… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/pathogens14101023
Abstract: A unique phenotype of S. aureus called S. aureus small-colony variants (SA-SCVs) are a consequential contributor to multiple infectious processes. SA-SCVs are distinguishable from wild-type S. aureus (WT-SA) by their small size, slowed growth rate,… read more here.

DOI: 10.4142/jvs.22046
Abstract: Background Florfenicol might be ineffective for treating Staphylococcus aureus small colony variants (SCVs) mastitis. Objectives In this study, florfenicol-loaded chitosan (CS)-sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) composite nanogels were prepared to allow targeted delivery to SCV infected sites.… read more here.
