A novel Vancomycin‐Functionalized‐Magnetic Graphene Composite for Use as a Near‐Infrared‐Induced Synergistic Chemo‐Photothermal Antibacterial

Antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains are a major cause of disease. They continue to remain a challenge in the clinic particularly in the vision system. For example, infectious endophthalmitis is a major blind-causing disease caused by bacteria. A highly efficient synergistic antibacterial treatment that uses a photothermal antibacterial therapeutic with a chemo-antibacterial therapeutic in a multifunctional nanocomposite is reported. It is...
