A Precision Anti-Infective for Enterococcus sp Eradication as well as Selective Decontamination
This innovation is a water-soluble nanocarrier that can precisely and quickly eradicate the healthcare-associated pathogen enterococci. The carrier can complex with oligonucleotides that can bind to bacterial mRNA, preventing translation and inhibiting bacterial functions of enterococci. It is also non-toxic to both human tissue and bacteria and may...
