Absorbance and infra red spectra further validated the inhibition of staphyloxanthin by thymol. In addition, thymol treatment significantly reduced the resistance of MRSA to ROS and neutrophil-based killing as exhibited by oxidant susceptibility assays and ex vivo innate immune clearance assay using human whole blood and neutrophils. Further, reduction in staphyloxanthin by thymol treatment increased the membrane fluidity and made MRSA cells more susceptible to membrane targeting antibiotic polymyxin B. Especially, thymol was found to
