Up to 80% of all infections are biofilm-mediated and they are often challenging to treat as the underlying bacterial cells can become 100- to 1000-fold more tolerant toward antibiotics. Antibiotic-loaded nanoparticles have gained traction as a potential drug delivery system to treat biofilm infectio...
