Polymer Factory

The study was conducted with the aim of finding a topical delivery strategy for AMPs, which are promising antibacterial agents. AMPs were encapsulated in DNGs and subsequently embedded in a hydrogel, which formed the delivery system. In-vitro studies showed good biocompatibility and in-vivo models showed superior efficacy of the DNG-encapsulated AMPs compared to the AMP in solution.

The study was published in the journal Macromolecular Bioscience in January 2023. Find the link to the paper here.
