Our new article @dtd_tromso @cans_uit led by PhD student @Alex_Sof_Sousa is available online on @JMaterChem ! . In this paper, @Alex_Sof_Sousa stabilises DNA micelles with polymyxin B to study penetration/activity in biofilms. Thank you to all our collaborators and funders.
Our new article is out!😀. We show how DNA micelles stabilized with polymyxin B can self-assemble spontaneously, penetrate P. aeruginosa biofilms and have ANTIBACTERIAL effect. A biocompatible approach with possible applications for skin wound treatment!

Nice collaborating with Prof. Wohland from @NUS_DBS on Alexandra’s project over the summer. We are grateful for the mobility funding she received and the support from Dept of Pharmacy @UiTNorgesarktis @dtd_tromso . Looking forward to more future explorations 😊.
One of the perks of research is the ability to do it with other institutions. For this, a big thank you to @NUS_DBS for providing me with the opportunity to dive into the sophisticated microscopy techniques you make seem so effortless, and @UiTNorgesarktis for supporting it! 😊
