Basis of Virulence in Enterotoxin-Mediated Staphylococcal Food Poisoning.

abstract：:Antimycotic chemosensitization and its mode of action are of growing interest. Currently, use of antifungal agents in agriculture and medicine has a number of obstacles. Foremost of these is development of resistance or cross-resistance to one or more antifungal agents. The generally high expense and negative impact, ...
