Potent Antibacterial Nanoparticles against Biofilm and Intracellular Bacteria
The chronic infections related to biofilm and intracellular bacteria are always hard to be cured because of their inherent resistance to both antimicrobial agents and host defenses. Herein we develop a facile approach to overcome the above conundrum through phosphatidylcholine-decorated Au nanoparticles loaded with gentamicin (GPA NPs). The nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron ...
متن کامل3D scaffold with effective multidrug sequential release against bacteria biofilm.
Bone infection is a feared complication following surgery or trauma that remains as an extremely difficult disease to deal with. So far, the outcome of therapy could be improved with the design of 3D implants, which combine the merits of osseous regeneration and local multidrug therapy so as to avoid bacterial growth, drug resistance and the feared side effects. Herein, hierarchical 3D multidru...
متن کاملCommensal Protection of Staphylococcus aureus against Antimicrobials by Candida albicans Biofilm Matrix
Biofilm-associated polymicrobial infections, particularly those involving fungi and bacteria, are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality and tend to be challenging to treat. Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus specifically are considered leading opportunistic fungal and bacterial pathogens, respectively, mainly due to their ability to form biofilms on catheters and indwellin...
متن کاملAntimicrobial therapy in periodontitis: the use of systemic antimicrobials against the subgingival biofilm.
OBJECTIVES The aim was to answer three relevant questions: can systemic antimicrobials be efficacious if the biofilm is not disrupted? Can the type of debridement of the subgingival biofilm impact upon the clinical outcomes of the adjunctive antimicrobial therapy? Is the efficacy of the adjunctive systemic antimicrobial therapy dependent on the quality of the debridement of the subgingival biof...
متن کاملWhy are bacteria refractory to antimicrobials?
The incidence of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic bacteria is rising. Antibiotic resistance can be achieved via three distinct routes: inactivation of the drug, modification of the target of action, and reduction in the concentration of drug that reaches the target. It has long been recognized that specific antibiotic resistance mechanisms can be acquired through mutation of the bacterial ge...
