Copper Doped Carbon Dots for Addressing Bacterial Biofilm Formation, Wound Infection, and Tooth Staining

Meng Liu et al.

Summary: Oral infectious diseases and tooth staining are major challenges in dental healthcare. Researchers have developed copper-doped carbon dots (Cu-CDs) that can inhibit bacterial adhesion and eradicate biofilms in the oral environment without causing harm to surrounding tissues. Cu-CDs also show excellent antibacterial ability against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In addition, Cu-CDs have a better performance in tooth whitening compared to other alternatives, with minimal damage to enamel and dentin. The biocompatible Cu-CDs have great potential for eliminating oral pathogenic biofilms and promoting oral health.

Ultrasmall FeS2 Nanoparticles-Decorated Carbon Spheres with Laser-Mediated Ferrous Ion Release for Antibacterial Therapy

Juqun Xi et al.

Summary: This study synthesized carbon nanospheres decorated with ultrasmall FeS2 nanoparticles (CNSs@FeS2) for antimicrobial applications. It was found that CNSs@FeS2 released Fe2+ and sulfur ions simultaneously to kill bacteria, with sulfur acting as a protective agent for Fe2+ and the carbon shells accelerating Fe2+ release through photothermal effects for synergistic hyperthermia/Fe2+ therapy. The research clarifies the antibacterial mechanism of FeS2 and proposes a synergetic therapeutic platform for antibacterial applications utilizing laser-mediated Fe2+ release.

Dynamic Constitutional Frameworks as Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Agents

Andrei Diaconu et al.

Summary: Dynamic constitutional frameworks (DCFs) composed of trialdehyde core, diamine PEG connector, and various neutral, anionic, or cationic heads demonstrated effective biofilm inhibition or disruption. Among them, polycationic DCFs showed the best antibiofilm activity, with the nature of cationic heads playing a significant role. DCF3B exhibited the best antibiofilm activity, while DCF3C, with a guanidinium functional head, was superior in inhibiting biofilm growth in an advanced in vitro biofilm model of chronic wound infection.

Simultaneous and Spatial Quantification of Telomerase Activity and DNA Methylation in Living Cells by a Deformable Satellite Nanocapsule

Shan Huang et al.

Summary: This study presents a new method for simultaneously quantitatively detecting telomerase activity and DNA methylation degree in cells, with spatial-based detection. The ratio of telomerase activity to DNA methylation significantly correlates with the efficacy of anticancer drugs, while no apparent linear relationship exists between individual detection targets and drug efficacy. This newly developed approach extends the technology toolbox for precision in medical and pharmaceutical analysis related to drug potency.
