In vitro dilutions of thioridaxine with potential to enhance antibiotic sensitivity in a multidrug resistant Staphylococcus aureus uropathogen

This research effort seeks to use doses of thioridaxine to enhance antibiotic sensitivity in a multidrug resistant (MDR) Staphylococcus aureus strain. Five axenic (pure) strains of S. aureus coded SA1 to SA5 were obtained from five infected midstream urine samples, inoculated on sterile cystine lactose electrolyte deficient (CLED) agar and stocked on sterile nutrient agar slants at 4°C in a refrigerator. Bacteria strains were sub-cultured on...
