METHOD FOR ENHANCING DRUG SENSITIVITY OF DRUG-RESISTANT PATHOGENIC MICROORGANISM AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING APPEARANCE OF HIGHLY DRUG-RESISTANT GERM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means for reducing opportunistic infectious disease caused by a drug-resistant germ for a patient without immuno-protection and a serious hospital infection problem such as postoperative infection. PSOLUTION: Disclosed are a method for enhancing the sensitivity of a drug-resistant pathogenic microorganism against an antimicrobial substance by irradiating LED light with a wave length of 400-410 nm and a peak wave length of 405 nm in the presence of the antimicrobial substance, and a method for preventing the appearance of a pathogenic microorganism such as MRSA with high drug-resistance by irradiating LED light in the presence of high concentration of the antimicrobial substance.
