Cu-MOFs based photocatalyst triggered antibacterial platform for wound healing: 2D/2D Schottky junction and DFT calculation

Modulating CsPbBr3 nanocrystals encapsulated in PCN-224(Zr) for boosting full-spectrum-driven CO2 reduction: S-scheme transfer, photothermal-synergistic effect, and DFT calculations

“…The highest photothermal conversion efficiency ( η T ) was calculated to be 36.8% for CsPbBr 3 @PCN-224(Zr)-10. 32 The enhanced photothermal properties of CsPbBr 3 @PCN-224(Zr)-10 reflected its superior light-absorption ability from the UV to vis-NIR light region and high conversion efficiency of light energy into thermal energy for photocatalytic CO 2 RR. As depicted in Fig.…”

Bioinspired Nanotopography for Combinatory Osseointegration and Antibacterial Therapy

“…10,11 Misuse of antibiotics also jeopardizes environmental sustainability and ecological security. 12 Thus, there is an urgent need to develop safe and effective antibacterial therapy to prevent pathogen infections while facilitating the migration and differentiation of preosteoblasts in the context of orthopedic implants.…”

“…Antibiotics are used extensively to reduce bacterial adhesion; however, antibiotics typically exhibit an initial burst release followed by prolonged, low-level release . The burst release of antibacterial agents can harm host cells and tissues, while low-level release may not achieve effective bacterial inhibition because the concentration may fall below the minimum inhibitory threshold. , Furthermore, excessive and prolonged antibiotic use can lead to drug resistance among bacteria, potentially causing superbugs. , Misuse of antibiotics also jeopardizes environmental sustainability and ecological security . Thus, there is an urgent need to develop safe and effective antibacterial therapy to prevent pathogen infections while facilitating the migration and differentiation of preosteoblasts in the context of orthopedic implants.…”
