Abstract

The emergence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria poses a significant health concern, stemming from chemically induced intrinsic and acquired-resistance responses in the microbe. Nanopatterns are an alternative bactericidal approach, employing physical features to prevent biofilm formation and kill...
