The role of carotenoids in the modulation of physiochemical aspects that determine Staphylococcus aureus survival under desiccation
Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) is a bacterial species that exhibits a golden coloration, given by the triterpenoid carotenoid staphyloxanthin. It is present on the skin or mucous of 20% to 30% of the human population in its natural bacterial flora, but it is also an opportunistic pathogen and one...
