Local application of gentamicin for wound closure after full‐support microaxial flow pump therapy. ABSTRACT Background Surgically implanted microaxial flow pumps (mAFP) are increasingly used for cardiogenic shock treatment. Standard mAFP explantation is performed bedside with a shortening of the vascular prosthesis, which may represent a potential ...

ABSTRACT Aims The clinical effectiveness of antibiotic (ATB) therapy in patients with infected diabetic foot ulcers (iDFUs) depends on achieving sufficient ATB concentrations in both serum and peripheral tissues. This study evaluated the availability and bactericidal activity of the time‐dependent ATBs—ceftazidime (CTZ) and amoxicillin/clavulanate (AMC)

Marine‐derived biosurfactants produced by microorganisms (including bacteria, fungi, and yeast) have amphiphilic properties that facilitate membrane interactions and transport across the blood–brain barrier (BBB). These biosurfactants exhibit neuroprotective activity by targeting mechanisms implicated in Alzheimer's disease, including reducing ...

Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptidomimetics
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.
