Cystine Containing Cationic Amphiphilic Peptide-Based Injectable, Noncytotoxic, Proteolytically Stable Hydrogel with Anti-infective Surface-Coating Activity against Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial and Fungal Biofilms.
Antimicrobial resistance involving opportunistic bacterial and fungal pathogens along with persistent biofilm-associated infections possess a critical global healthcare challenge. In this study, we have reported a cationic amphiphilic peptide-based hydrogelator with a disulfide backbone and tryptophan side-chain residu...
