Abstract

In article number 1902089, Huaiyu Wang, Jie Zhuang, Guosong Wu, Paul K. Chu, and co-workers demonstrate a non-leaching antibacterial concept on nanoflakes. The nanoflakes stretch bacteria on contact and the mechanical stress imposed triggers a series of reactions such as membrane rupture and reactive oxygen species burst leading to bacteria death. Biomaterials with the non-leaching antibacterial ability are very promising in implants and cause little side effects and inflammation in vivo.
