Nanosponge Vaccine Fights MRSA Toxins, Say Researchers

New nanosponge vaccine soaks up a dangerous pore-forming toxin produced by MRSA (methicillin-resistant iStaphylococcus aureus/i), say researchers. Nanoengineers from the University of California, San Diego described the safety and efficacy of this nanosponge vaccine in the December 1 issue of iNature Nanotechnology/i. The nanosponges at the foundation of the experimental "toxoid vaccine" platform are bio-compatible particles made of a polymer core ...
