Bacterial infection and the ever-increasing bacterial resistance have imposed severe threat
to human health. And bacterial contamination could significantly menace the wound healing …

Antibiotic resistance is a global human health threat, causing routine treatments of bacterial
infections to become increasingly difficult. The problem is exacerbated by biofilm formation …

The widespread use of biomaterials to support or replace body parts is increasingly
threatened by the risk of implant‐associated infections. In the quest for finding novel anti …

Recent evidence clearly shows that cells respond to various physical cues in their
environments, guiding many cellular processes and tissue morphogenesis, pathology, and …

Hydrogels have emerged as promising antimicrobial materials due to their unique three-
dimensional structure, which provides sufficient capacity to accommodate various materials …

Nanoscale materials have unique properties that make them especially useful for
biomedical diagnostic applications. Recent developments in nanoengineering have resulted …

The discovery of antibiotics has saved millions of lives, but the emergence of antibiotic‐
resistant bacteria has become another problem in modern medicine. To avoid or reduce the …

Some insects, such as dragonflies, have evolved nanoprotrusions on their wings that rupture
bacteria on contact. This has inspired the design of antibacterial implant surfaces with insect …

Abstract Treatment of implant-associated infection is becoming more challenging, especially
when bacterial biofilms form on the surface of the implants. Developing multi-mechanism …

Antibiotics, a power tool to combat pathogenic bacterial infection, have experienced their
inability to kill drug-resistant bacteria due to the development of antibiotic resistance. As an …
