Nanoparticles Decorated Nanotubes: Advanced Local Therapies From Anodized Nanoengineered Titanium Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This comprehensive review explores therapeutic titanium implants designed to enhance integration and provide superior antibacterial efficacy. It is focused on anodized titanium implants with titania nanotubes (TNTs) loaded with nanoparticles (NPs) for local therapeutic release, enhancing bioactivity and bactericidal functions.

DENTA: A Dual Enzymatic Nanoagent for Self‐Activating Tooth Whitening and Biofilm Disruption

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The nanoapatite with dual enzymes (DENTA) accumulates in dentinal tubules, reducing hypersensitivity caused by dental nerve exposure and facilitating continuous ROS generation through salivary glucose for effective, long‐term whitening. The dentin structures remain non‐destructive due to the low concentration of ROS, demonstrating excellent cell ...

Enhanced Sonodynamic Bacterial Elimination and Wound Healing Therapy Based on Lanthanide Ion Doped Bi2WO6 Nanosheets and Hydrogel Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lanthanide ytterbium ions are introduced into Bi2WO6 nanosheets to boost ROS generation under US stimulation. These ytterbium‐doped Bi2WO6 nanosheets serve as efficient sonosensitizers, enabling broad‐spectrum bacterial eradication. To improve biocompatibility for in vivo sonodynamic therapy, the sonosensitizers are integrated into hydrogel matrix ...

From a thin film model for passive suspensions towards the description of osmotic biofilm spreading

open access: yes, 2016
Biofilms are ubiquitous macro-colonies of bacteria that develop at various interfaces (solid-liquid, solid-gas or liquid-gas). The formation of biofilms starts with the attachment of individual bacteria to an interface, where they proliferate and produce

Denitrification-derived nitric oxide modulates biofilm formation in Azospirillum brasilense [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Azospirillum brasilense is a rhizobacterium that provides beneficial effects on plants when they colonize roots. The formation of complex bacterial communities known as biofilms begins with the interaction of planktonic cells with surfaces in response to
