Modelling antisepsis using defined populations of facultative and anaerobic wound pathogens grown in a basally perfused biofilm model (2018)
Journal Article
Oates, A., Lindsay, S., Mistry, H., Ortega, F., & McBain, A. J. (2018). Modelling antisepsis using defined populations of facultative and anaerobic wound pathogens grown in a basally perfused biofilm model. Biofouling, 34(5), 507-518. https://doi.org/10.1080/08927014.2018.1466115

An in vitro model was developed to assess the effects of topical antimicrobials on taxonomically defined wound biofilms. Biofilms were exposed over seven days to povidone-iodine, silver acetate or polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) at concentrations...

© 2018 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most significant human pathogens that is frequently isolated in a wide range of superficial and systemic infections. The ability of S. aureus to invade and surviv... Read More about Hyaluronan-Based Nanohydrogels for Targeting Intracellular S. Aureus in Human Keratinocytes.

Pursuing intracellular pathogens with hyaluronan. From a 'pro-infection' polymer to a biomaterial for 'trojan horse' systems (2018)
Journal Article
Montanari, E., Di Meo, C., Oates, A., Coviello, T., & Matricardi, P. (2018). Pursuing intracellular pathogens with hyaluronan. From a 'pro-infection' polymer to a biomaterial for 'trojan horse' systems. Molecules, 23(4), 939. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules23040939

© 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Hyaluronan (HA) is among the most important bioactive polymers in mammals, playing a key role in a number of biological functions. In the last decades, it has been increasingly studied as a bi... Read More about Pursuing intracellular pathogens with hyaluronan.
