Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase-negative staphylococcus that is a commensal of humans and an opportunistic pathogen. It can cause a spectrum of infections, including those that are associated with the ability to form biofilm, such as occurs with endocarditis or
Hyperphosphatemia in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) necessitates the use of phosphate binders. This in vitro study assessed phosphate binding and Fe release properties of the novel iron-based phosphate binder PA21. Phosphate adsorption and Fe release were assessed under conditions
