Time-Kill Curve Analysis of Fucoidan Combination with Conventional Antibiotics against Biofilms Formation of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates
The study concludes that fucoidan, in combination with gentamicin and imipenem, effectively disrupts mixed-species biofilms of MRSA and A. baumannii, suggesting fucoidan-based therapies could improve outcomes for DFU patients, warranting further clinical investigation.
