Medical Fabrics with Non‐Antibiotic, Supramolecular Antimicrobial Coatings: A Preventive Approach to Combat Biofilm Formation and Bacterial Dissemination

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents an antibiotic‐free strategy using medical fabrics coated with supramolecular assemblies of polyarginine and hyaluronic acid. These coatings showed strong antimicrobial and anti‐biofilm activity in vitro and in vivo, achieving major bacterial load reductions, including against MRSA.

Determination of Root Exudate Concentration in the Rhizosphere Using 13C Labeling

Bio-Protocol, 2019
One of the most remarkable metabolic features of plant roots is their ability to secrete a wide range of compounds into the rhizosphere, defined as the volume of soil around living roots.

Plant–microbe interactions: Plant-exuded myo-inositol attracts specific bacterial taxa

Current Biology, 2023
Plants exude a plethora of metabolites that transform the microbiome composition. Initiated from genome-wide association studies of either a plant or a bacterium, two new studies dissect the impact of plant-secreted myo-inositol on recruitment of certain bacterial taxa by Arabidopsis.

Oxygen and ROS Delivery for Infected Wound Healing and Future Prospects

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacterial infection is a major driver of delayed wound healing and postsurgical readmissions; with rising antibiotic resistance, solid peroxide–releasing biomaterials offer sustained delivery of ROS/O2 for antimicrobial control and microenvironmental modulation.

The Function of Root Exudates in the Root Colonization by Beneficial Soil Rhizobacteria

Biology
Soil-beneficial microbes in the rhizosphere play important roles in improving plant growth and health. Root exudates play key roles in plant–microbe interactions and rhizobacterial colonization.

Injectable Stimuli‐Responsive Amphiphilic Hydrogel for Rapid Hemostasis, Robust Tissue Adhesion, and Controlled Drug Delivery in Trauma and Surgical Care

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fast‐acting hydrogel seals bleeding wounds as the illustrated injectable, pH‐responsive network rapidly gels in situ to stop hemorrhage, adhere strongly to wet tissue, and release antibiotics in a controlled, pH‐dependent manner. The material withstands high pressures, shows excellent biocompatibility, and degrades safely, offering a versatile platform

Exudates of dominant plants regulate rhizospheric soil total and available heavy metals and facilitates natural restoration succession in an abandoned metal mining area

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Soil degradation caused by activities such as mining is a severe global environmental issue that drastically disrupts ecosystems. Utilizing plants and their root secretions for ecological remediation is a crucial pathway to restoring these damaged lands.

Methylobacterium-plant interaction genes regulated by plant exudate and quorum sensing molecules [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2013
Bacteria from the genus Methylobacterium interact symbiotically (endophytically and epiphytically) with different plant species. These interactions can promote plant growth or induce systemic resistance, increasing plant fitness. The plant colonization is guided by molecular communication between bacteria-bacteria and bacteria-plants, where the ...

An In Situ Embedded B‐MOF Sponge With Shape‐Memory for All‐in‐One Diabetic Wound Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A smart shape‐memory sponge dressing (P1A3@B‐MOF) is developed for accelerated diabetic wound healing. It achieves pH‐responsive corelease of Zn2+ and salvianolic acid B, synergistically providing antibacterial action, repolarizing macrophages to the M2 phenotype, and promoting angiogenesis.
