Self-assembled ruthenium(II) nanostructures disrupt electron transport and energy metabolism in MRSA via bacterial interfacial interactions.
The emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has substantially compromised the effectiveness of conventional antibiotic therapies, highlighting the need for alternative antibacterial strategies. Herein, we designed an amphiphilic ruthenium(II) complex(Ru1) that spontaneously self-assembles into h...
