Microbes form surface-adherent community structures called biofilms and these biofilms play
a critical role in infection. Biofilms impart antibiotic resistance and sometimes become …

A nanoparticle can be defined as a small object that behaves as a whole unit in terms of its
transport and properties. Nanoparticles are sized between 1 and 100 nm in diameter …

Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen that secretes several toxins associated
with the pathogenesis of sepsis and pneumonia. Its antibiotic resistance is notorious, and its …

Biofilms formed by fungal organisms are associated with drastically enhanced resistance
against most antimicrobial agents, contributing to the persistence of the fungi despite …

This review is focused on the comparison of the biological and pharmacological activities of
usnic acid enantiomers. Most of the available data refer to (+)-usnic acid, while the left …

Injuries and diseases of the skin require accurate treatment using nontoxic and noninvasive
biomaterials, which aim to mimic the natural structures of the body. There is a strong need to …

Cutaneous wounds are often superinfected during the healing process and this leads to
prolonged convalescence and discomfort. Usage of suitable wound dressings is very …

The second part of our review describing new achievements in the field of biofilm prevention
and control, begins with a discussion of the active antibiofilm nanocoatings. We present the …

Biofilm formation by Staphylococcus aureus plays a critical role in the persistence of chronic
infections because of the ability of the bacterium in biofilms to tolerate antibiotics and host …
