Porcupine‐Quill‐Inspired Shape‐Morphing Biointerfaces Disassemble Biofilms [PDF]
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A porcupine‐spine‐inspired dynamic offensive bio‐interface is developed for active biofilm disassembly. By coupling electrically driven nano‐dagger penetration with light‐triggered ROS generation, the surface overcomes the passive limitations of conventional mechano‐bactericidal topographies, achieving near‐complete biofilm eradication, strong ...
