In vitro bactericidal activity of equine platelet concentrates, platelet poor plasma, and plasma against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

The aims of the study were 1) to evaluate the antibacterial effect of equine platelet concentrates (ePCs) (either activated or not with calcium gluconate (CG)) against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and 2) to compare their antibacterial effect with activated platelet poor plasma...
