Contact/Release Coordinated Antibacterial Cotton Fabrics Coated with N-Halamine and Cationic Antibacterial Agent for Durable Bacteria-Killing Application.

Coating a cationic antibacterial layer on the surface of cotton fabric is an effective strategy to provide it with excellent antibacterial properties and to protect humans from bacterial cross-infection. However, washing with anionic detergent will inactivate the cationic antibacterial coating. Although this problem can be solved by increasing the amount of cationic antibacterial coating, excessive cationic antibacterial coating reduces the drapability of cotton fabric and affects the comfort of wearing it.

Hydrophilic and degradable polyesters based on l-aspartic acid with antibacterial properties for potential application in hernia repair.

A polyester hernia patch has received extensive attention in mesh hernia repair. However, it is still a challenge to develop polyester-based implants with inherent antibacterial properties due to the lack of active functional groups. In this study, poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene aspartate) (PBSA) was constructed by introducing aspartic acid on a polybutylene succinate (PBS) polyester chain (PBSA).

Biodegradable and pH Sensitive Peptide Based Hydrogel as Controlled Release System for Antibacterial Wound Dressing Application.

The stimuli-sensitive and biodegradable hydrogels are promising biomaterials as controlled drug delivery systems for diverse biomedical applications. In this study, we construct hybrid hydrogels combined with peptide-based bis-acrylate and acrylic acid (AAc). The peptide-based bis-acrylate/AAc hybrid hydrogel displays an interconnected and porous structure by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation and exhibits pH-dependent swelling property.
