Conductive hydrogels have promising applications in flexible electronic devices and artificial intelligence, which have attracted much attention in recent years. However, most conductive hydrogels have no antimicrobial activity, inevitably leading to...
INTRODUCTION: is a major opportunistic pathogen that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several chronic inflammatory diseases including bronchial asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU),...
Early use of effective antimicrobial treatments is critical for the outcome of infections and the prevention of treatment resistance. Antimicrobial resistance testing enables the selection of optimal antibiotic treatments, but current culture-based t...

The Microorganism Detection System (SDM) is a new solution using artificial intelligence, unique on the international scale, to correctly identify and count microorganisms, with particular emphasis on specificlisted microorganisms (Document of Standa...
Antimicrobials against planktonic cells and established biofilms at low doses are in increasing demand to tackle antibiotic-resistant biofilm infections. As a promising alternative to antibiotics, cationic polymers can effectively kill planktonic mic...
Structural modifications of known antibiotic scaffolds have kept the upper hand on resistance, but we are on the verge of not having antibiotics for many common infections. Mechanism-based discovery assays reveal novelty, exclude off-target liabiliti...
The coronavirus disease COVID-19 was first described in December 2019. The peripheral blood of COVID-19 patients have increased numbers of neutrophils which are important in controlling the bacterial infections observed in COVID-19. We sought to eval...
The de novo design of antimicrobial therapeutics involves the exploration of a vast chemical repertoire to find compounds with broad-spectrum potency and low toxicity. Here, we report an efficient computational method for the generation of antimicrob...
