In the past two decades, porous silicon (PSi) has attracted increasing attention for its
potential biomedical applications. With its controllable geometry, tunable nanoporous …

Antibiotics, which are crucial to treat or prevent bacterial infections, are compounds used to
kill or slow down the growth of bacteria. In recent years, antibiotic resistance has grown into …

Nanodelivery systems usually improve the biodistribution of drugs, leading to reduced side
effects and enhanced therapeutic efficacy. However, only a small portion of the injected …

Advanced scaffolds used in tissue regenerating applications should be designed to address
clinically relevant complications such as surgical site infection associated with surgical …

Background Orthopaedic biomaterials are susceptible to biofilm formation. A novel lipid-

In this study, the effect of 3-aminopropyl surface functionalization of ordered mesoporous
silica SBA-15 on cefazolin adsorption and release profiles was investigated. The …

An efficient approach for the antimicrobial agent delivery specifically at acidic pH has been
proposed. At the outset, functionalized mesoporous nanoparticles (NPs) were examined to …

One of the greatest challenges in the field of medicine is obtaining controlled distribution of
systemically administered therapeutic agents within the body. Indeed, biological barriers …
