AIE-active anthraquinone-derived sonosensitizers with enhanced reactive oxygen species generation for ultrasonic biofilm eradication
Abstract
) biofilms at low concentrations (15 µM). This work establishes a new paradigm for designing AIE-enhanced organic sonosensitizers and provides a robust platform for ultrasound-activated antimicrobial applications, with significant potential for translation into non-thermal sterilization technologies.
