Abstract

, intraperitoneal administration of Mφ-PLGA-NOR combined with PMB achieved a 2-log reduction in bacterial lung burden. This study underscores the promise of bacterial plasma membrane-based pathogen-mimetic nanoplatforms in potentiating the efficacy of antibiotic adjuvants in conjunction with biofilm-penetrating strategies.
