Does one size fit all for antimicrobial delivery via nanoparticles

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy

Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are a growing problem and new ways are needed to target bacterial infections more efficiently. One way in which bacteria can avoid therapeutics is via intracellular infection, where they hide within our own cells. Read more
