Exploring the spatial distribution of biomolecules in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms formed on PDMS and lung explants by mass spectrometry imaging

Bacterial biofilms constitute a form of collective organization that enhances bacterial tolerance to both antibiotics and immune defences. Among bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a major opportunistic pathogen, with marked biofilm-forming capacity, highly implic...

Development of antibacterial wipes coated with nanofibers made from nisin and polyvinyl alcohol

Nosocomial infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ), a major pathogen that colonizes human skin, are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Effective management of S. aureus is essential, especially given the rising threat of antibiotic resistance. Innova...
