[CLINICAL EFFICACY OF TREATMENT OF STAPHYLOCOCCAL INFECTION BY COMPOSITION OF NANOSTRUCTURED SILICON DIOXIDE AND
Abstract:
Clinical efficacy of a composition of nanostructuared silicon dioxide and fosfomycin in treating the skin abscess induced by Staphylococcus aureus inoculation in rabbits has been studied. It is established that the proposed composition of silicon dioxide nanoparticles and fosfomycin exhibits higher therapeutic potential in treating local purulent-septic process in skin of test animals. The therapy with this composition reduced the number of abscesses in the skin by 50% after two days of application and by 80 - 90% after five days of therapy as compared to therapy with application of chloramphenicol liniment (15.0 vs. 4.0 and 7.0 vs. 2.0, respectively).

Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
