Antibacterial potential of Al^sub 2^O3 nanoparticles against multidrug resistance strains of Staphylococcusaureus isolated from skin exudates

To date very little studies are available in the literature on the interaction of Al^sub 2^O3 nanoparticles with multidrug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Considering the paucity of earlier reports the objective of present study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of Al^sub 2^O...
