Abstract

Drug-resistant bacterial infections threaten global health and economies. Stimulus-responsive antibacterial materials are promising for combating resistance and improving treatment precision. Among them, electroresponsive strategies stand out for being practical, economical, tunable, and safe. This perspective examines various strategies, including electroluminodynamic therapy, electrodynamic therapy, and electrocontrolled drug release, which enable precise antibacterial action with minimal side effects and demonstrate strong application potential. Finally, we outline current challenges and future directions to guide further research and practical applications.
