Zein nanocapsules as a tool for surface passivation, drug delivery and biofilm prevention
Current oral hygiene treatments focus on managing oral biofilms (i.e. dental plaque) by broad antimicrobial strategies, indiscriminately killing both pathogenic and commensal microorganisms present in the oral cavity. In an effort to identify alternative approaches to antimicrobials, several researc...
