Abstract
Antimicrobial Janus nanoparticles (NPs) having distinct hydrophobic and polycationic surfaces are embedded in crosslinked polymers. These encapsulated Janus NPs have increased stabilization, to allow for long-term effectiveness. The encapsulated Janus NPs enhance traditional antibiotics and reduce the necessary dosage of those traditional antibiotics to inhibit growth of muti-drug resistant bacteria.
