Uncovering Key Characteristics of Antibacterial Peptides through Machine Learning

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning (ML) techniques using random forest classification models revealed key characteristics that predict effective antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) targeting Gram‐negative bacteria, Gram‐positive bacteria, and mycobacteria. The ideal cLogP (<$ < $−6) and net‐charge (≤+4) threshold was the same for all three targets with variations in the ...

Surfactant‐Enhanced Electrospun Nanofiber Filters for Efficient Viral and Bacterial Inactivation

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 13, April 5, 2026.
In this work, electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous filters functionalized with surfactants (CTAB, CPC, and SDS) were developed for air filtration applications. The PAN nanofiber mats enable efficient particulate matter capture while simultaneously providing antimicrobial and antiviral activity against bacteria (E. coli and S.
