Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Fungal infections in liver transplant recipients [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Sixty-two adults who underwent orthotopic liver transplantations between February 1981 and June 1983 were followed for a mean of 170 days after the operation. Twenty-six patients developed 30 episodes of significant fungal infection.

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Resistance of Oil‐Infused PDMS with Different Macroporosities Against Bacterial Attachment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In this study, a series of environmentally benign, nonfluorinated liquid paraffin‐infused porous PDMS networks with varying porosities is created. By introducing different homogenous and heterogenous bulk structures and varying interfacial roughness by sugar and salt templating, the role of porosity and oil availability on the resistance against ...

Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings Based on Bioglass, Vitamin D3, and Melittin Deposited via MAPLE for Enhanced Osseointegration, Antibacterial Activity, and Corrosion Resistance of Titanium Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of
