Published in 2024 at "Nano letters"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.4c03503

Abstract: Antimicrobial sonodynamic therapy (SDT) holds great promise in clinical practice regarding its noninvasiveness, high safety profile, and absence of resistance concern. However, exploring high-efficiency sonodynamic sensitizers is slow-moving and remains a big challenge. We, herein,… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60456-1

Abstract: Chitosan (CH) exhibits low antimicrobial activity. This study addresses this issue by modifying the chitosan with a sulfonamide derivative, 3-(4-(N,N-dimethylsulfonyl)phenyl)acrylic acid. The structure of the sulfonamide-chitosan derivative (DMS-CH) was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy… read more here.
