Curator's Comment: Time-kill analysis of one Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) reference strain (ATCC 43300) and three clinical isolates (WM3, BM1 and KJ7) for stigmasterol was first performed to provide the bacteriostatic/bactericidal profile. Then, MRSA ATCC 43300 strain treated by compound was interrogated by next-generation sequencing
