Genera Staphylococcus: Gram-positive cocci arranged in clusters Occurs frequently on the skin and mucous membranes of humans and animals Cause of acne, boils, endocarditis, osteomyelitis, toxic shock syndrome, nosocomial infections, wound infections, etc. Often resistant to a wide variety of antibiotics, including methicillin Contains carotenoids, staphyloxanthin, 4,4'-diaponeurosporene Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus epidermidis

Summary The most effective combination for inhibition the growth of the three investigated staphilococci is the LED light (405, 625 nm), Brilliant Green and TiO 2 nanoparticles. This bacteria killing technology has several advantages: a low power radiation and low concentration of dyes can be used; the effectiveness is achieved through various mechanisms (photodynamic, photocatalytic, photothermal) that prevents the formation of bacterial resistance
