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

With the abuse and misuse of antibiotics, antimicrobial resistance has become a challenging
issue in the medical system. Iatrogenic and non-iatrogenic infections caused by multidrug …

Infection, inflammation, tumors, and other illnesses have for a long time posed a major
danger to human health and have developed into a global public health issue. However, the …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) show great promise for clinical applications, but the utility of
naturally occurring AMPs is often limited by their stability. Here, we used a rational design …

Wound dressings represent the first important defense line against potentially life-
threatening infections. Successful materials should unify efficiency, simplicity of production …

Amphiphilic antimicrobial polymers have attracted considerable interest as structural mimics
of host defense peptides (HDPs) that provide a broad spectrum of activity and do not induce …

Aim: The efficacy of a pyochelin–zingerone conjugate (PZC) against Pseudomonas
aeruginosa in vivo in a mouse model of peritonitis, as well as mode of action in vitro, were …

The formation of biofilms by a microcolony of bacteria is a significant burden on the
healthcare industry due to difficulty eradicating it. In this study, pH-responsive vesicles …

The treatment of infections is becoming more difficult due to emerging resistance of
pathogens to existing drugs. As such, alternative druggable targets, particularly those that …

This study developed a gelatin/alginate-based nanocomposite hydrogel (NC gel),
incorporating selenium-doped deferoxamine-derived carbon quantum dots (Se. DFO …
