a Diagram of super anti-biofilm formation in vivo. b Development of resistant S. aureus cells during continuous passage with a subminimum dose of bacteriostatic agents. c Biofilm viability after 20 serial passages measured by crystal violet staining. Data represent the mean ± SD (n = 3 biologically independent samples). Significance was assessed using a two-sided Student’s t-test with multiple comparisons: *p < 0.05. d Protein–protein interaction analysis of the drug resistance-related proteins of S. aureus after NR-MoS2 treatment. The red and blue fonts represent downregulated and upregulated proteins, respectively. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
