The sulfonated zwitterionic photosensitizer (PYSO3) is synthesized by reacting maleic anhydride derivatives with 4‐aminopyridine to form PY, followed by sulfonation with 1,4‐butane sultone. It exhibits both photothermal and photodynamic properties, enabling effective eradication of MRSA and biofilms, as well as promoting wound healing in mice ...

Dextran sodium sulfate confounds causal role of periodontitis in inflammatory bowel disease
Abstract Background Emerging evidence supports a bidirectional link between periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate this relationship, experimental models commonly use dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce colitis. However, DSS is presumed to selectively affect the colon, and its potential off‐target effects on the oral ...

Biodegradable HPMC–chitosan film for moisture retention and quality preservation in fresh‐cut mango
Abstract BACKGROUND Replacing conventional plastics with biodegradable solutions that control moisture loss in fresh‐cut produce is a strategic need. This study developed hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) and chitosan (CS) films plasticised with glycerol (Gly) and evaluated their use as sealing lids for fresh‐cut mango. RESULTS The selected monolayer

Encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs in poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles strongly depends on solvent and polymer compatibility. By linking Hansen solubility parameters with atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses, the work reveals predictive markers of ...

Glyco‐Nanogels for Modulating Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm
Nanogels presenting α‐galactose and β‐fucose can significantly alter Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm dynamics through their interaction with lectins. Application timing is crucial: pre‐treatment reduces biofilm, while treatment after biofilm initiation increases biomass.
