A Modified Chronic Infection Model for Testing Treatment of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilms on Implants

Bacterial biofilms causing implant-associated osteomyelitis is a severe complication with limited antimicrobial therapy options. We designed an animal model, in which implant associated osteomyelitis arise from a Staphylococcus aureus biofilm on a tibia implant. Two bioluminescently engineered (luxA...
