233 nm far‐UV‐C radiation for biofilm inactivation
Based on tests to assess biofilm formation potential (crystal violet staining, color of colonies grown on Congo red agar and calcofluor agar), three bacterial genera/species/strains (Staphylococcus (S.) epidermidis, S. aureus, Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa) were selected for analysis of their biofilm matrix composition.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Warburg redefined: Metabolites, mitochondria and macrophages in immune regulation
Abstract figure legend Following pro‐inflammatory stimulation, macrophages undergo Warburg‐like metabolic rewiring that extends more than increased glycolysis. The non‐canonical functions of glycolytic enzymes and lactate accumulation control macrophage immune responses through multiple signalling pathways (a).
