Recent studies indicate that carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (CORMs), a class of organometallic compounds, exert antibacterial activities through the delivery of carbon monoxide (CO) molecules. We developed a new-class CO-delivery system by conjugating classical low-molecular-weight CORMs (i.e.,...
