Abstract: Techniques are disclosed of enabling projects to be managed for grouping artifacts about related network activity. A graphical interface can be provided to enable users to create both public and private projects with information including names, descriptions, collaborators and monitoring profiles. A project can include context and history of the project so multiple users can collaborate within a project to view the analysis process as assets are identified in the project. Information is retrieved for identified assets in separate projects and is available for display in the graphical interface.

Abstract: The BAA antigen of Staphylococcus aureus was identified in a highly bacteremic MRSA strain that has enhanced in vitro binding to fibronectin and other extracellular matrix proteins compared with other endemic and related strains. BAA is a phage-encoded surface-expressed adhesin which binds fibronectin in vitro. It may be responsible for the enhanced catheter-related bacteremic phenotype of MRSA strains and is thus useful as a vaccine target to prevent MRSA bacteremia.
