Dual functionality nanobioconjugates targeting intracellular bacteria in cancer cells with enhanced antimicrobial activity

Abstract Bacterial drug resistance has emerged as a serious global threat mandating the development of novel methodologies that allow facile modulation of antimicrobial action in a controlled fashion. Conjugating antibiotics to nanoparticles helps to meet this goal by increasing the drug’s overall a...
