Abstract:Targeted bactericidal nanosystems hold significant promise to improve the efficacy of existing antimicrobials for treatment of severe bacterial infections by minimizing the side effects and lowering the risk of antibiotic resistance development. In this work, Silver Oxytetracycline Nano-structure (Ag-OTC-Ns) was developed for selective and effective eradication of Klebsiella pneumoniae pulmonary infection. Ag-OTC-Ns were prepared by simple homogenization-ultrasonication method and were characterized by DLS, Ze… Show more
