Résumé
Bacteria are becoming increasingly resistant to classical antimicrobial agents, so new approaches need to be explored. To assess the potential of cold atmospheric plasma for the management of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The 24, 48, and 72 h resistant and susceptible S. aureus biofilms were exposed to 60, 120, and 180 s treatment with plasma. Increasing the treatment time results in higher cell reduction for both susceptible and resistant strains of S. aureus (P < 0.05). Up to log Cold atmospheric plasma is a good candidate for S. aureus and MRSA biofilm treatment and may therefore be of value in the bacterial resistance crisis.
