Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is a part of the skin microbiota, a bacterium resistant to various drug actions, making it difficult to heal ulcers and wounds. This work was carried out to evaluate the effect of ozone gas on S. aureus. The methodology employed was the diffusion test on Agar, and through analysis and results we observed the high bactericidal effect of ozone gas.
