Gold nanoparticles functionalised with vancomycin enhance antibacterial activity and inhibit Streptococcus pneumoniae adherence and invasion in alveolar cells
{{output}}
Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae) is a leading cause of respiratory infections, with increasing antibiotic resistance posing a major challenge. While gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalised with antibiotics have been explored, their impact on bacteria... ...
