a

MIC = minimum inhibitory concentration. nd = not determined.

b

MIC values of >10 observations are included in the reported MIC range from EUCAST.52

c

MRSA strain tested was also VISA.

d

No MRSA strain was tested; therefore, an MIC range for MSSA is indicated here.

e

MIC reported is from VRE in general, as literature did not specify VanA- or VanB-type resistance. Note the possibility of solely one van resistance type being present.

f

Low-density loading of nanoparticles (0.2 μg/mL vancomycin per 1 mg of 37).

g

High-density loading of nanoparticles (11.75 μg/mL vancomycin per 1 mg of 37).
