MURINE WOUND MODEL FOR TESTING PATHOGEN VIRUENCE AND THERAPEUTIC EFFICACY

摘要

The invention provides a murine model of wound infection and biofilm formation and methods for producing such model. The inventive murine model of wound infection may be used to evaluate pathogen virulence and test efficacy of a pharmaceutical composition and/or a treatment procedures in preventing or treating wound infection, reducing biofilm formation, or reducing symptoms in a subject.
