Abstract:
In the article, titled "A Comprehensive Review of Nanomaterials as Potential Weapons against Multidrug-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus," published in Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology [1], the citation for Figure 4 was inadvertently omitted in the original version of the manuscript. This omission has now been corrected. The details of the correction are as follows: Original: Nanomaterial-based approaches show promise for efficient, economical point-of-care diagnostics due to their inherent antimicrobial activity and ability to bind pathogens, facilitating improved detection methods. Nanoparticles offer intrinsic benefits such as size, high surface area, morphology, simplicity of surface modification, and unique optical, electromagnetic, mechanical, and chemical capabilities. Aside from improved antimicrobial action, the features of metal-based NPs allow them to be used as diagnostics agents for microbial infections [29, 156]. Fig. (5) depicts several ways for bioimaging S. aureus using colorimetric, fluorescent, magnetic NPs, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering approaches.

Phagocytes are the frontline soldiers of the immune system. They include neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are quickly mobilized to the site of infection. Macrophages are larger cells that patrol...
