This project explores the role of bacterial biofilms in antimicrobial resistance, focusing on the diffusion of antimicrobial peptides. By studying biofilm properties and their interaction with drugs, the research aims to enhance treatment strategies for biofilm-related infections.
Bacterial biofilms are associated with approximately 1.7 million hospital-acquired infections annually in the United States, incurring an annual economic burden of about 11 billion dollars.
The role of biofilms in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is highly complex and may significantly drive resistance.
Biofilms can act as a diffusion-limiting barrier against various antimicrobials resulting in limited drug access into the bacterial cells.
The evaluation and quantification of biofilm diffusion is…
