Niosomes modified with a novel pH-responsive coating (mPEG-OA) enhance the antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of vancomycin against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Surface functionalization of nanoparticles has shown potential in enhancing the efficacy of antibiotic-loaded nanosystems against drug-resistant bacteria. The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize an acid-cleavable pH-responsive polymer from methoxy polyethylene glycol and oleyl...
