Representative photomicrographs of MRSA infected burn wound without treatment showing (a) large area of necrotic debris (ND) with multiple bacterial colonies in the dead tissue 10 days after infection with MRSA, H&E ×200. (b) A section of the skin showing necrotic sebaceous gland (NSG) in the dermis, characterized by pyknosis and karyolysis of the glandular cells, H&E ×400. (c) Multifocal areas of leucocytic infiltration (LI) around smooth muscle fibers (S) in the dermis, H&E ×200, (d) epidermal edema (EO), and vascular congestion (VC) with diffuse leucocytic infiltration (LI) in the dermis after 10 dpw, H&E ×200.
