Supercationic Poly(Hexamethylene Biguanide)‐Derived Carbon Dots for Combating Multidrug‐Resistant Bacterial Keratitis

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This research introduces poly(hexamethylene biguanide)‐derived carbon dots (P‐CDs) as a novel antibacterial agent for combating multidrug‐resistant bacterial keratitis. P‐CDs exhibit potent activity against resistant pathogens, including MRSA and MRPA. In vivo results confirm their superior therapeutic efficacy over standard antibiotics, alongside the ...
