Abstract

ESKAPE pathogens (e.g., S. aureus, P. aeruginosa) are responsible for many antibiotic-resistant infections. There is a growing need to discover new antimicrobial agents. This experiment investigates whether an unknown bacterial isolate exhibits antimicrobial activity. Our isolate previously showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis, suggesting it may have similar effects on Staphylococcus aureus.
