Enhanced and Stem-Cell-Compatible Effects of Nature-Inspired Antimicrobial Nanotopography and Antimicrobial Peptides to Combat Implant-Associated Infection Open
Nature-inspired antimicrobial surfaces and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have emerged as promising strategies to combat implant-associated infections. In this study, a bioinspired antimicrobial peptide was functionalized onto a nanospike (…
The visualisation of interactions between Acinetobacter baumannii and the antimicrobial peptides: colistin sulphate, bicarinalin and BP100 Open
It is estimated that there are over 700,000 deaths annually worldwide due to multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacterial infections and by 2050 this is predicted to rise to 10 million. One of these MDR organisms is Acinetobacter baumannii, an opp…
Impact of surface topography and coating on osteogenesis and bacterial attachment on titanium implants Open
Titanium (Ti) plays a predominant role as the material of choice in orthopaedic and dental implants. Despite the majority of Ti implants having long-term success, premature failure due to unsuccessful osseointegration leading to aseptic lo…
