Biological nanoweapons: The end of resistant bacteria is near

Lead Researcher: Joel Eduardo Vielma-Puente, Ph.D. Publication: Nano-Structures and Nano-Objects (Q1)

Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest threats to global health. In response to this challenge, a team of ESPOL researchers, in collaboration with other national and international institutions, has developed an innovative "dual" strategy that uses local natural resources to produce nanoparticles and combine them with a virus to fight resistant bacteria such as Escherichia coli.
