Effect of Nanoparticles Type and Content on the Antimicrobial Activity of Magnetoelectric Polymer‐Based Composites

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Magnetoelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) nanocomposites containing CFO or Fe3O4 nanoparticles were developed to generate electroactive microenvironments under magnetic stimulation. At 1 Hz, particularly with 20% CFO, strong antimicrobial effects were observed against E. coli and S. aureus. This approach highlights the potential of magnetically activated surfaces to

Sulfonium‐Based Antimicrobial Block Copolymers: Influence of Hydrophobicity on Biological Activity and Antibiotic Synergy

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Sulfonium‐based antimicrobial block copolymers combine an active cationic hydrophobic block with a neutral hydrophilic block to improve cytocompatibility. The hydrophobicity of the sulfonium‐based block controls the activity against S. aureus and E coli.

Rapid systematic review on risks and outcomes of sepsis: the influence of risk factors associated with health inequalities

International Journal for Equity in Health
Background and aims Sepsis is a serious and life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated immune response to an infection. Recent guidance issued in the UK gave recommendations around recognition and antibiotic treatment of sepsis, but did not ...

Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptidomimetics

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Singular macromolecular cationic, amphipathic cyclic peptidomimetics with poly(2‐oxazoline)s‐esque backbone structure that undergo self‐assembly in water to form uniform nanoparticles were developed. The cyclic peptidomimetics, which act on bacterial cell membranes, exhibit hydrophobic‐dependent antimicrobial activity and toxicity.

Mechanisms of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in Bacteria

, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is recognized as one of the major global health challenges and “ticking time bomb” of the 21st century. The resistance of bacteria to antibiotics hinders the efficiency of antibiotic use in the health care, and there is significant evidence to prove that the misuse of antibiotics will eventually result in the development ...

Antibacterial Micro/Nanorobots: Innovations, Challenges, and Future Perspectives in Combatting Infection

Nano Select, EarlyView.
Antibacterial micro/nanorobots (MNRs) represent a breakthrough in antibacterial therapy, making precise delivery of drugs to the infection site. This review systematically summarizes the material composition, actuation, and applications of MNRs in combating biofilms and drug‐resistant infections while emphasizing the existing challenges of ...
