Bacterial infection and excess reactive oxygen species are key factors that lead to slow or
substantially delayed wound healing. It is crucial to design and develop new nanomaterials …

Widespread bacterial infection and the spread of antibiotic resistance exhibit increasing
threat to the public and thus require new antibacterial strategies. Carbon quantum dots …

Carbon dots (CDs), as one kind of zero-dimensional carbon-based nanomaterials, show
great potential in combating emerging infectious diseases and antimicrobial infections. CDs …

Effectively targeting and killing microbial pathogens is a major challenge in the treatment of
infectious diseases. Inspired by the high efficacy of natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), in …

Developing efficient and safe approach to counteract the bacterial infections has become an
urgent clinical challenge. In this work, we report folic acid derived carbon dots (FA-CDs) …

Gram-positive bacteria are one of the most common pathogens causing severe and acute
infection, and hospital infection caused by Gram-positive bacteria have increased …

Bacterial infections and inflammation pose a severe threat to human health and the social
economy. The existence of super-bacteria and the increasingly severe phenomenon of …

Biofilm formation can lead to the treatment failure of persistent bacterial infections. Although
a variety of antibacterial agents have been developed, the restricted drug penetration and …

Oxidative stress, which is induced by the overproduced free radicals around inflammation, is
one of the most important factors to delay the wound healing process. Much efforts have …

The development of novel antimicrobial agents is a top priority in the fight against drug-
resistant bacteria. Here, we synthesized a green nanoantibiotic, nitrogen-doped carbon …
