In immune modulation, the bactericidal action of β-lactam antibiotics is impaired by phagocytic cells, as the clearance of S. aureus from infection-accessible sites to phagocytes was delayed compared with phagocyte-inaccessible sites when treated with cephalothin, emphasizing the challenges in ...
Therefore, the oral cavity/oro-pharynx is considered to have a significant role as a reservoir of staphylococci for its cross-infection and dissemination to other body sites [19,22]. In our previous studies on healthy children [23] and dental patients/staff [24] in northern Japan, the ...
