Methylene blue-enhanced photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy againstStaphylococcus aureus: From laboratory research to clinical evaluation
MB-mediated PDT and PDT+SDT are safe, well tolerated, and effective against S. aureus on skin. These approaches provide localized antimicrobial activity independent of antibiotic resistance and warrant further optimization for clinical application.
