Abstract
Photothermal treatment (PTT) involving a combination of therapeutic modalities recently emerged as an efficient alternative for combating biofilm. However, PTT-related local high temperature may destroy the surrounding healthy tissues. Herein, we present an all-in-one phototherapeutic nanoplatform consisting of l-arginine (l-Arg), indocyanine green (ICG), and mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA), namely, AI-MPDA, to eliminate the already-formed biofilm. The fabrication process included surface modification of MPDA with l-Arg and further adsorption of ICG via π-π stacking. Under near-infrared (NIR) exposure, AI-MPDA not only generated heat but also produced reactive oxygen species, causing a cascade catalysis of l-Arg to release nitric oxide (NO). Under NIR irradiation, biofilm elimination was attributed to the NO-enhanced photodynamic therapy and low-temperature PTT (≤45 °C). Notably, the NIR-triggered all-in-one strategy resulted in severe destruction of bacterial membranes. The phototherapeutic AI-MPDA also displayed good cytocompatibility. NIR-irradiated AI-MPDA nanoparticles not only prevented bacterial colonization but also realized a rapid recovery of infected wounds. More importantly, the all-in-one phototherapeutic platform displayed effective biofilm elimination with an efficiency of around 100% in a abscess formation model. Overall, this low-temperature phototherapeutic platform provides a reliable tool for combating already-formed biofilms in clinical applications.

Abstract
The attachment of microbial communities to surfaces is a well-known problem recognized to be involved in a variety of critical issues in the sectors of food processing, chronic wounds, infection from implants, clogging of membranes and corrosion of equipment. Considering the importance of the detrimental impact of biofouling, it has received much attention in the scientific community and from concerned stakeholders. With the development of nanotechnology and the nowadays widespread use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs), concerns have been raised regarding their fate in terrestrial and aquatic environments. Safety aspects and public health issues are critical in the management of handling nanomaterials and their nanowastes. The interactions of various types of nanoparticles (NPs) with planktonic bacteria have also received attention due to their antimicrobial properties. However, their behavior in regard to biofilms is not well understood although, in the environment, most of the bacteria prefer living in sessile communities. The question appears relevant considering the need to build knowledge on the fate of nanoparticles and the fact that no one can exclude the risk of accumulation of nanoparticles in biofilms and on surfaces leading to a form of nanofouling involving both engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) and nanoplastics. The present analysis of recent research accounts allows in identifying that (1) research activities related to water remediation systems have been mostly oriented on the impact of NPs on pre-existing biofilms, (2) experimental designs are restricted to few scenarios of exposure, usually limited to relative short-time periods although nanofouling could favour the development of multi-resistant bacterial species through sub-lethal exposures over prolong periods of time (3) nanofouling in other systems in which biofilms develop remains to be addressed, and (4) new research directions are required for investigating the mechanisms involved and the subsequent impact of nanofouling on bacterial consortium responses encountered in a variety of environments such as those prevailing in food production/processing settings. Finally, this review aims at providing recent information and insights on nanoparticle-bacterial interactions in the context of biofilms in order to supply an updated outlook of research perspectives that could help establish the framework for production, use and fate of nanomaterials as well as future research directions.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA), a mussel-inspired synthetic polymer, affords biocompatible and antifouling coatings on a variety of surfaces. However, the traditional protocol of preparing PDA by polymerizing dopamine (DA) under basic conditions yields physically-unstable and non-uniform coatings that are prone to delamination and exhibit compromised antifouling performance in vivo. Here, we show that the high local pH in the vicinity of vesicular self-assemblies formed by a series of acetal-based cationic amphiphiles can be exploited to conveniently polymerise DA under physiological conditions in a gradual manner without requiring any external oxidant. Two of the four PDA-liposome nanoformulations viz. PDA-L1 and PDA-L2 turned out to be highly stable physically and resisted precipitation for more than a month while the other two formulations (PDA-L3 and PDA-L4) were less stable and formed visible precipitates with time. Further, the PDA-liposome formulations had significantly improved haemocompatibility compared to that of pristine liposomes. PDA-L1 formed highly uniform, nanostructured coatings on implants like catheter, cotton and bandages that did not delaminate even after a week of continuous incubation in simulated body fluid, or on exposure to pH change and presence of proteolytic enzymes. The PDA-L1 coated catheter implants resisted biofouling by both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in vitro and also had superior in vivo performance in mice vis-à-vis the implants coated with traditional base-polymerised PDA formulation (BP-PDA). Thus, these novel liposomal PDA nanoformulations significantly improve the practical utility of PDA-based coatings for antimicrobial applications.

Abstract
In contrast to the plethora of antibacterial agents, only a handful of antifungals are currently available to treat Candida albicans biofilm-associated infections. Additional novel antibiofilm strategies to eliminate C. albicans biofilm infections are needed. This study aims to improve the efficacy of a widely used azole, fluconazole by co-delivering it with a Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing molecule (QSM), N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C12AHL) in a liposomal formulation. C12AHL is known to inhibit C. albicans' morphological transition and biofilm formation. Four different formulations of liposomes with fluconazole (L-F), with C12AHL (L-H), with fluconazole and C12AHL (L-HF), and a drug-free control (L-C) were prepared using a thin-film hydration followed by extrusion method, and characterised. The effect of liposomes on colonising (90 min-24 h) and preformed (24 h) C. albicans biofilms were assessed using a standard biofilm assay. Biofilm viability (XTT reduction assay), biomass (Safranin-O staining) and architecture (confocal laser scanning microscopy, CLSM) were determined. Similar efficiencies of fluconazole entrapment were noticed in L-HF and L-F (11.74% vs 10.2%), however, L-HF released greater quantities of fluconazole compared to L-F during 24 h (4.27% vs 0.97%, P < 0.05). The entrapment and release of C12AHL was similar for L-H and L-HF liposomes (33.3% vs 33% and 88.9% vs 92.3% respectively). L-HF treated colonising, and preformed biofilms exhibited >80%, and 60% reduction in their respective viabilities at a fluconazole concentration as low as 5.5 µg/mL compared to 12% and 36%, respective reductions observed in L-F treated biofilms (P < 0.05). CLSM confirmed biofilm disruption, lack of hyphae, and reduction in biomass when treated with L-HF compared to other liposomal preparations. Liposomal co-delivery of C12AHL and fluconazole appears to suppress C. albicans biofilms through efficacious disruption of the biofilm, killing of constituent yeasts, and diminishing their virulence at a significantly lower antifungal dose. Therefore, liposomal co-formulation of C12AHL and fluconazole appears to be a promising approach to improve the efficacy of this common triazole against biofilm-mediated candidal infections.

Abstract
Due to rapid development of bacterial resistance against antibiotics, an emerging health crisis is underway, where 'simple' infections may no longer be treatable. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) constitute a class of substances attracting interest in this context. So far, research on AMPs has primarily focused on the identification of potent and selective peptides, as well as on the action mode of such peptides. More recently, there has been an increasing awareness that the delivery of AMPs is challenging due to their size, net positive charge, amphiphilicity, and proteolytic susceptibility. Hence, successful development of AMP therapeutics will likely require also careful design of efficient AMP delivery systems. In the present brief review, we discuss microgels, as well as related polyelectrolyte complexes and macroscopic hydrogels, as delivery systems for AMPs. In doing so, key factors for peptide loading and release are outlined and exemplified, together with consequences of this for functional performance relating to antimicrobial effects and cell toxicity.

Abstract
Biofilm has resulted in numerous obstinate clinical infections, posing severe threats to public health. It is urgent to develop original antibacterial strategies for eradicating biofilms. Herein, we develop a surface charge switchable supramolecular nanocarrier exhibiting pH-responsive penetration into an acidic biofilm for nitric oxide (NO) synergistic photodynamic eradication of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilm with negligible damage to healthy tissues under laser irradiation. Originally, by integrating the glutathione (GSH)-sensitive α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) conjugated nitric oxide (NO) prodrug (α-CD-NO) and chlorin e6 (Ce6) prodrug (α-CD-Ce6) into the pH-sensitive poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) block polypeptide copolymer (PEG-(KLAKLAK)2-DA) via host-guest interaction, the supramolecular nanocarrier α-CD-Ce6-NO-DA was finely prepared. The supramolecular nanocarrier shows complete surface charge reversal from negative charge at physiological pH (7.4) to positive charge at acidic biofilm pH (5.5), promoting efficient penetration into the biofilm. Once infiltrated into the biofilm, the nanocarrier exhibits rapid NO release triggered by the overexpressed GSH in the biofilm, which not only produces abundant NO for killing bacteria but also reduces the biofilm GSH level to improve photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficiency. On the other hand, NO can react with reactive oxygen species (ROS) to produce reactive nitrogen species (RNS), further improving the PDT efficiency. Due to the effective penetration into the biofilm and depletion of biofilm GSH, the surface charge switchable GSH-sensitive NO nanocarrier can greatly improve the PDT efficiency at a low photosensitizer dose and laser intensity and cause negligible side effect to healthy tissues. Considering the above advantages, the strategy developed in this work may offer great possibilities to fight against biofilm infections.

Abstract
Many nanotechnology-based antimicrobials and antimicrobial-delivery-systems have been developed over the past decades with the aim to provide alternatives to antibiotic treatment of infectious-biofilms across the human body. Antimicrobials can be loaded into nanocarriers to protect them against de-activation, and to reduce their toxicity and potential, harmful side-effects. Moreover, antimicrobial nanocarriers such as micelles, can be equipped with stealth and pH-responsive features that allow self-targeting and accumulation in infectious-biofilms at high concentrations. Micellar and liposomal nanocarriers differ in hydrophilicity of their outer-surface and inner-core. Micelles are self-assembled, spherical core-shell structures composed of single layers of surfactants, with hydrophilic head-groups and hydrophobic tail-groups pointing to the micellar core. Liposomes are composed of lipids, self-assembled into bilayers. The hydrophilic head of the lipids determines the surface properties of liposomes, while the hydrophobic tail, internal to the bilayer, determines the fluidity of liposomal-membranes. Therefore, whereas micelles can only be loaded with hydrophobic antimicrobials, hydrophilic antimicrobials can be encapsulated in the hydrophilic, aqueous core of liposomes and hydrophobic or amphiphilic antimicrobials can be inserted in the phospholipid bilayer. Nanotechnology-derived liposomes can be prepared with diameters <100-200 nm, required to prevent reticulo-endothelial rejection and allow penetration into infectious-biofilms. However, surface-functionalization of liposomes is considerably more difficult than of micelles, which explains while self-targeting, pH-responsive liposomes that find their way through the blood circulation toward infectious-biofilms are still challenging to prepare. Equally, development of liposomes that penetrate over the entire thickness of biofilms to provide deep killing of biofilm inhabitants still provides a challenge. The liposomal phospholipid bilayer easily fuses with bacterial cell membranes to release high antimicrobial-doses directly inside bacteria. Arguably, protection against de-activation of antibiotics in liposomal nanocarriers and their fusogenicity constitute the biggest advantage of liposomal antimicrobial carriers over antimicrobials free in solution. Many Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains, resistant to specific antibiotics, have been demonstrated to be susceptible to these antibiotics when encapsulated in liposomal nanocarriers. Recently, also progress has been made concerning large-scale production and long-term storage of liposomes. Therewith, the remaining challenges to develop self-targeting liposomes that penetrate, accumulate and kill deeply in infectious-biofilms remain worthwhile to pursue.

Abstract
Cascade reactions integrate two or more reactions, of which each subsequent reaction can only start when the previous reaction step is completed. Employing natural substrates in the human body such as glucose and oxygen, cascade reactions can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to kill tumor cells, but cascade reactions may also have potential as a direly needed, novel bacterial infection-control strategy. ROS can disintegrate the EPS matrix of infectious biofilm, disrupt bacterial cell membranes, and damage intra-cellular DNA. Application of cascade reactions producing ROS as a new infection-control strategy is still in its infancy. The main advantages for infection-control cascade reactions include the fact that they are non-antibiotic based and induction of ROS resistance is unlikely. However, the amount of ROS generated is generally low and antimicrobial efficacies reported are still far <3-4 log units necessary for clinical efficacy. Increasing the amounts of ROS generated by adding more substrate bears the risk of collateral damage to tissue surrounding an infection site. Collateral tissue damage upon increasing substrate concentrations may be prevented by locally increasing substrate concentrations, for instance, using smart nanocarriers. Smart, pH-responsive nanocarriers can self-target and accumulate in infectious biofilms from the blood circulation to confine ROS production inside the biofilm to yield long-term presence of ROS, despite the short lifetime (nanoseconds) of individual ROS molecules. Increasing bacterial killing efficacies using cascade reaction components containing nanocarriers constitutes a first, major challenge in the development of infection-control cascade reactions. Nevertheless, their use in combination with clinical antibiotic treatment may already yield synergistic effects, but this remains to be established for cascade reactions. Furthermore, specific patient groups possessing elevated levels of endogenous substrate (for instance, diabetic or cancer patients) may benefit from the use of cascade reaction components containing nanocarriers.

Abstract
Background: Localized delivery of antimicrobial agents such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) by a biomaterial should be on-demand. Namely, AMPs should be latent and biocompatible in the absence of bacterial infection, but released in an amount enough to kill bacteria immediately in response to bacterial infection. Methods: To achieve the unmet goal of such on-demand delivery, here we turned a titanium implant with titania nanotubes (Ti-NTs) into a Pandora's box. The box was loaded with AMPs (HHC36 peptides, with a sequence of KRWWKWWRR) inside the nanotubes and "closed" (surface-modified) with a pH-responsive molecular gate, poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA), which swelled under normal physiological conditions (pH 7.4) but collapsed under bacterial infection (pH ≤ 6.0). Thus, the PMAA-gated Ti-NTs behaved just like a Pandora's box. The box retarded the burst release of AMPs under physiological conditions because the gate swelled to block the nanotubes opening. However, it was opened to release AMPs to kill bacteria immediately when bacterial infection occurred to lowering the pH (and thus made the gate collapse). Results: We demonstrated such smart excellent bactericidal activity against a panel of four clinically important bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. In addition, this box was biocompatible and could promote the osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. Both in vitro and in vivo studies confirmed the smart "on-demand" bactericidal activity of the Pandora's box. The molecularly gated Pandora's box design represents a new strategy in smart drug delivery.

Abstract
Preventing bacterial infections from becoming the leading cause of death by the year 2050 requires the development of novel, infection-control strategies, building heavily on biomaterials science, including nanotechnology. Pre-clinical (animal) studies are indispensable for this development. Often, animal infection outcomes bear little relation to human clinical outcome. Here, we review conclusions from pathogen-inoculum dose-finding pilot studies for evaluation of novel infection-control strategies in murine models. Pathogen-inoculum doses are generally preferred that produce the largest differences in quantitative infection outcome parameters between a control and an experimental group, without death or termination of animals due to having reached an inhumane end-point during the study. However, animal death may represent a better end-point for evaluation than large differences in outcome parameters or number of days over which infection persists. The clinical relevance of lower pre-clinical outcomes, such as bioluminescence, colony forming units (CFUs) retrieved or more rapid clearance of infection is unknown, as most animals cure infection without intervention, depending on pathogen-species and pathogen-inoculum dose administered. In human clinical practice, patients suffering from infection present to hospital emergency wards, frequently in life-threatening conditions. Animal infection-models should therefore use prevention of death and recurrence of infection as primary efficacy targets to be addressed by novel strategies. To compensate for increased animal morbidity and mortality, animal experiments should solely be conducted for pre-clinical proof of principle and safety. With the advent of sophisticated in vitro models, we advocate limiting use of animal models when exploring pathogenesis or infection mechanisms.

Abstract
In this study, we proposed a green, facile and low-cost approach for the fabrication of multifunctional particles with robust bacteria removal capability and on-demand biofilm eradication activity. Based on mussel-inspired coating of catechol and hexanediamine on Fe3O4 in aqueous solution, magnetic poly(catechol-hexanediamine) particles (Fe3O4@HDA) were prepared successfully in 1 h, at room temperature. Microbiological experiments demonstrated the Fe3O4@HDA particles could capture bacteria in water efficiently. Meanwhile, with an integration of magnetic response property and near-infrared-triggered photothermal bactericidal activity, the Fe3O4@HDA particles showed a high potential for biofilm targeting and in-situ eradication. We believe that the rationally designed magnetic poly(catechol-hexanediamine) particles could extend the applications of smart antimicrobial agents to industrial fields such as water disinfection and biofouling clean-up.

Abstract
Fabricating biomaterials with antimicrobial activity to prevent the growth of detrimental microorganisms is of great scientific and practical interest. Here, composite materials comprising recombinant spider silk proteins and mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) loaded with selected antibiotics and antimycotics are fabricated into films and hydrogels. The derived composite materials exhibit excellent antimicrobial properties with sustained release of antibiotics over the course of 15 days. Furthermore, antibiotics/antimycotics inclusion does not impair the cytocompatibility of the composite materials, all of which promote fibroblast cell adhesion and proliferation. Finally, processing of spider silk-MSN composite hydrogels using 3D printing is shown to enable the fabrication of patient-specific antimicrobial implants to prevent infection in the near future.

Abstract
We report here the tumor-implantable microparticles with a honeycomb-like porous structure. These microparticles were prepared by electrospinning using γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) conjugated with 3-(diethylamino)propylamine (DEAP, as a pH-responsive moiety), named γ-CD-DEAP. The resulting microparticles had pore channels (constructed using γ-CD-DEAP) extending into the deep compartment of the microparticles and allowing efficient paclitaxel (PTX, as a chemotherapeutic model drug) entrapment by a simple hole-filling encapsulation process. Importantly, the hydrophobic DEAP (at pH 7.4) in the γ-CD-DEAP microparticles changed to hydrophilic DEAP (at pH 6.8) because of its acidic pH-induced protonation. This phenomenon resulted in an acidic pH-activated particle destruction by a charge-charge repulsion between the protonated DEAP moieties and allowed a pH-triggered release of the encapsulated PTX from the collapsed microparticles. Consequently, γ-CD-DEAP microparticles implanted at the tumor site caused a significant enhancement of the in vitro/in vivo tumor cell ablation, suggesting their significant potential as a chemotherapeutic implant for tumor therapy.

Endophthalmitis, derived from the infections of pathogens, is a common complication during the use of ophthalmology-related biomaterials and after ophthalmic surgery. Herein, aiming at efficient photodynamic therapy (PDT) of bacterial infections and biofilm eradication of endophthalmitis, a pH-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework-8-polyacrylic acid (ZIF-8-PAA) material is constructed for bacterial infection-targeted delivery of ammonium methylbenzene blue (MB), a broad-spectrum photosensitizer antibacterial agent. Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is incorporated into the system to achieve higher pH responsiveness and better drug loading capacity. MB-loaded ZIF-8-PAA nanoparticles are modified with AgNO3 /dopamine for in situ reduction of AgNO3 to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), followed by a secondary modification with vancomycin/NH2 -polyethylene glycol (Van/NH2 -PEG), leading to the formation of a composite nanomaterial, ZIF-8-PAA-MB@AgNPs@Van-PEG. Dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and UV-vis spectral analysis are used to explore the nanoparticles synthesis, drug loading and release, and related material properties. In terms of biological performance, in vitro antibacterial studies against three kinds of bacteria, i.e., Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and methicillin-resistant S. aureus, suggest an obvious superiority of PDT/AgNPs to any single strategy. Both in vitro retinal pigment epithelium cellular biocompatibility experiments and in vivo mice endophthalmitis models verify the biocompatibility and antibacterial function of the composite nanomaterials.

Abstract
Antimicrobial lipids have been recognised as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. They can directly act on and lyse bacterial cell membrane, and inhibit bacterial growth through a range of mechanisms. Antimicrobial lipids include free fatty acids, monoglycerides, cholesteryl ester, sphingolipids and etc., with the first two being the most extensively studied. Their application is usually hindered by the low solubility of the compounds themselves, and nano-sized lipid-based carriers can endow druggability to these antimicrobial agents for they improve lipid solubility and dispersion in aqueous formulations. Nano-carriers also possess advantages in overcoming drug resistance. In this review we will discuss different kinds of antimicrobial lipids in nano-sized carriers for antibacterial delivery. CAL02 as a promising infection-controlling liposome consisted of cholesterol and sphingomyelin will also be included for it's a unique anti-infection approach, which signifies that the underlying antibacterial roles antimicrobial lipids needs to be further addressed. With the global emergence of antibiotic resistance, antimicrobial lipids formulated in nano-carriers might provide a novel alternative in combatting infectious diseases.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is becoming the biggest threat to human health. The scenario is partly due to the ineffectiveness of the conventional antibiotic treatments against the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria and partly due to the bacteria living in biofilms or cells. Adaptive biomaterials can change their physicochemical properties in the microenvironment of bacterial infection, thereby facilitating either their interactions with bacteria or drug release. The trends in treating bacterial infections using adaptive biomaterials-based systems are flourishing and generate innumerous possibility to design novel antimicrobial therapeutics. This feature article aims to summarize the recent developments in the formulations, mechanisms, and advances of adaptive materials in bacterial infection diagnosis, contact killing of bacteria, and antimicrobial drug delivery. Also, the challenges and limitations of current antimicrobial treatments based on adaptive materials and their clinical and industrial future prospects are discussed.

Abstract
Effective control of oral biofilm infectious diseases represents a major global challenge. Microorganisms in biofilms exhibit increased drug tolerance compared with planktonic cells. The present review covers innovative antimicrobial strategies for controlling oral biofilm-related infections published predominantly over the past 5 years. Antimicrobial dental materials based on antimicrobial agent release, contact-killing and multi-functional strategies have been designed and synthesized for the prevention of initial bacterial attachment and subsequent biofilm formation on the tooth and material surface. Among the therapeutic approaches for managing biofilms in clinical practice, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy has emerged as an alternative to antimicrobial regimes and mechanical removal of biofilms, and cold atmospheric plasma shows significant advantages over conventional antimicrobial approaches. Nevertheless, more preclinical studies and appropriately designed and well-structured multi-center clinical trials are critically needed to obtain reliable comparative data. The acquired information will be helpful in identifying the most effective antibacterial solutions and the most optimal circumstances to utilize these strategies.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is currently one of the main threats to public health security. Biofilm formation is a resistance mechanism that is responsible for most human bacterial infections and requires new and effective therapeutic approaches, such as those provided by nanotechnology. In this work, the antibacterial effect of carbosilane metallodendrimers with different metals (copper(II) and ruthenium(II)), ligands (chloride and nitrate) and generations (generation 0, 1 and 2) has been studied using planktonic Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria. Furthermore, the ability of the metallodendrimers to avoid the formation of S. aureus biofilms was also evaluated. The results showed a promising biocide activity in both types of planktonic bacteria, especially for first-generation dendrimers, which arises from the metal complexation to the dendrimer. Cu(II) metallodendrimers require lower concentration than Ru(II) counterpart to inhibit the production of S. aureus biofilms, but none produce hemolysis at the inhibitory concentrations and can be safely used as antibacterial agents. In particular, the first-generation Cu(II) metallodendrimer with nitrate ligands displayed the most promising properties to continue with further studies in both planktonic cells and biofilms.

Abstract
Multidrug resistant bacterial infections threaten to become the number one cause of death by the year 2050. Development of antimicrobial dendritic polymers is considered promising as an alternative infection control strategy. For antimicrobial dendritic polymers to effectively kill bacteria residing in infectious biofilms, they have to penetrate and accumulate deep into biofilms. Biofilms are often recalcitrant to antimicrobial penetration and accumulation. Therefore, this work aims to determine the role of compact dendrons with different peripheral composition in their penetration into Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Red fluorescently labeled dendrons with pH-responsive NH3+ peripheral groups initially penetrated faster from a buffer suspension at pH 7.0 into the acidic environment of P. aeruginosa biofilms than dendrons with OH or COO- groups at their periphery. In addition, dendrons with NH3+ peripheral groups accumulated near the top of the biofilm due to electrostatic double-layer attraction with negatively charged biofilm components. However, accumulation of dendrons with OH and COO- peripheral groups was more evenly distributed across the depth of the biofilms than NH3+ composed dendrons and exceeded accumulation of NH3+ composed dendrons after 10 min of exposure. Unlike dendrons with NH3+ groups at their periphery, dendrons with OH or COO- peripheral groups, lacking strong electrostatic double-layer attraction with biofilm components, were largely washed-out during exposure to PBS without dendrons. Thus, penetration and accumulation of dendrons into biofilms is controlled by their peripheral composition through electrostatic double-layer interactions, which is an important finding for the further development of new antimicrobial or antimicrobial-carrying dendritic polymers.

Abstract
The abuse of traditional antibiotics has caused a series of health problems including antimicrobial resistance, which threatens human health. Therefore, searching for broad sources of antimicrobial agents and developing multidimensional strategies to combat bacterial infections are urgent. Here, we reported two natural self-assembling modes between berberine (BBR) and flavonoid glycosides: nanoparticles (NPs) and nanofibers (NFs), which were both mainly governed by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. These two nanostructures exhibited different antibacterial properties from BBR. NPs showed significantly enhanced bacteriostatic activity, whereas NFs displayed a much weaker effect than BBR. The distinguishing properties can be attributed to the different spatial configurations and self-assembly processes of NPs and NFs. Flavonoid glycosides and BBR first formed a one-dimensional complex unit and subsequently self-assembled into three-dimensional nanostructures. With the hydrophilic glucuronic acid toward the outside, NPs exhibited stronger affinity to bacteria, thereby inducing the collapse of the bacteria population and the decrease in biofilm. In addition, in vitro hemolysis tests, cytotoxicity tests, and in vivo zebrafish toxicity evaluation showed that the obtained self-assemblies had good biocompatibility. This supramolecular self-assembly strategy can be applied to construct other nanoscale antibacterial drugs and thus provides weapons for the development of self-delivering drugs in bacterial infection treatment.

Abstract
Dispersions of cubic liquid crystalline phases, also known as cubosomes, have shown great promise as delivery vehicles for a wide range of medicines. Due to their ordered structure, comprising alternating hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains, cubosomes possess unique delivery properties and compatibility with both water-soluble and -insoluble drugs. However, the drug delivery mechanism and cubosome interaction with human cells and bacteria are still poorly understood. Herein, we reveal how cubosomes loaded with the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide LL-37, a system with high bacteria-killing effect, interact with the bacterial membrane and provide new insights into the eradication mechanism. Combining the advanced experimental techniques neutron reflectivity and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, a mechanistic drug delivery model for LL-37-loaded cubosomes on bacterial mimicking bilayers was constructed. Moreover, the cubosome interaction with Escherichia coli was directly visualized using super-resolution laser scanning microscopy and cryogenic electron tomography. We could conclude that cubosomes loaded with LL-37 adsorbed and distorted bacterial membranes, providing evidence that the peptide-loaded cubosomes function as an antimicrobial unit.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play crucial roles in biological metabolism and intercellular signaling. However, ROS level is dramatically elevated due to abnormal metabolism during multiple pathologies, including neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cancer, and premature aging. By taking advantage of the discrepancy of ROS levels between normal and diseased tissues, a variety of ROS-sensitive moieties or linkers have been developed to design ROS-responsive systems for the site-specific delivery of drugs and genes. In this review, we summarized the ROS-responsive chemical structures, mechanisms, and delivery systems, focusing on their current advances for precise drug/gene delivery. In particular, ROS-responsive nanocarriers, prodrugs, and supramolecular hydrogels are summarized in terms of their application for drug/gene delivery, and common strategies to elevate or diminish cellular ROS concentrations, as well as the recent development of ROS-related imaging probes were also discussed.

Abstract
Pathogenic oral biofilms are universal, chronic, and costly. Despite advances in understanding the mechanisms of biofilm formation and persistence, novel and effective treatment options remain scarce. Nanoparticle-mediated eradication of the biofilm matrix and resident bacteria holds great potential. In particular, nanoparticles that target specific microbial and biofilm features utilizing nontoxic materials are well-suited for clinical translation. However, much work remains to characterize the local and systemic effects of therapeutic agents that are topically applied to chronic biofilms, such as those that cause dental caries. In this Perspective, we summarize the pathogenesis of oral biofilms, describe current and future nanoparticle-mediated treatment approaches, and highlight outstanding questions that are paramount to answer for effectively targeting and treating oral biofilms.

Abstract
Many nanotechnology-based antimicrobials and antimicrobial-delivery-systems have been developed over the past decades with the aim to provide alternatives to antibiotic treatment of infectious-biofilms across the human body. Antimicrobials can be loaded into nanocarriers to protect them against de-activation, and to reduce their toxicity and potential, harmful side-effects. Moreover, antimicrobial nanocarriers such as micelles, can be equipped with stealth and pH-responsive features that allow self-targeting and accumulation in infectious-biofilms at high concentrations. Micellar and liposomal nanocarriers differ in hydrophilicity of their outer-surface and inner-core. Micelles are self-assembled, spherical core-shell structures composed of single layers of surfactants, with hydrophilic head-groups and hydrophobic tail-groups pointing to the micellar core. Liposomes are composed of lipids, self-assembled into bilayers. The hydrophilic head of the lipids determines the surface properties of liposomes, while the hydrophobic tail, internal to the bilayer, determines the fluidity of liposomal-membranes. Therefore, whereas micelles can only be loaded with hydrophobic antimicrobials, hydrophilic antimicrobials can be encapsulated in the hydrophilic, aqueous core of liposomes and hydrophobic or amphiphilic antimicrobials can be inserted in the phospholipid bilayer. Nanotechnology-derived liposomes can be prepared with diameters <100-200 nm, required to prevent reticulo-endothelial rejection and allow penetration into infectious-biofilms. However, surface-functionalization of liposomes is considerably more difficult than of micelles, which explains while self-targeting, pH-responsive liposomes that find their way through the blood circulation toward infectious-biofilms are still challenging to prepare. Equally, development of liposomes that penetrate over the entire thickness of biofilms to provide deep killing of biofilm inhabitants still provides a challenge. The liposomal phospholipid bilayer easily fuses with bacterial cell membranes to release high antimicrobial-doses directly inside bacteria. Arguably, protection against de-activation of antibiotics in liposomal nanocarriers and their fusogenicity constitute the biggest advantage of liposomal antimicrobial carriers over antimicrobials free in solution. Many Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains, resistant to specific antibiotics, have been demonstrated to be susceptible to these antibiotics when encapsulated in liposomal nanocarriers. Recently, also progress has been made concerning large-scale production and long-term storage of liposomes. Therewith, the remaining challenges to develop self-targeting liposomes that penetrate, accumulate and kill deeply in infectious-biofilms remain worthwhile to pursue.
