چکیده
|
The threat of emerging pathogens and microbial drug resistance has spurred tremendous efforts to develop new and more effective antimicrobial strategies. recently,a novel ultrashort pulsed (usp) laser technology has been developed that enables efficient and chemical-free inactivation of a wide spectrum of viral and bacterial pathogens. such a technology circumvents the need to introduce potentially toxic chemicals and could permit safe and environmentally friendly pathogen reduction,with a multitude of possible applications including the sterilization of pharmaceuticals and blood products,and the generation of attenuated or inactivated vaccines. © 2012 tsen et al.; licensee biomed central ltd.
