Bacterial resistance to various drugs is a major problem concerning the field of antibacterial agents. Fortunately, peptides with antibacterial activity can alleviate this problem. In this study, a short peptide (AVGAV) with excellent antibacterial activity was successfully screened from a peptide library by a self-made membrane chromatographic packing. The AVGAV peptide exhibits good biocompatibility and is non-toxic and non-irritating, which ensures that it presents safe antibacterial effects. AVGAV promoted wound healing in a mouse wound bacterial infection model. Most importantly, as a synthetic antimicrobial peptide, AVGAV can alleviate the problem of bacterial resistance, thus improving its application potential. This study provides a solution to the existing and potential problem of bacterial resistance.

Journal of Materials Chemistry B

Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C cover high quality studies across all fields of materials chemistry. The journals focus on those theoretical or experimental studies that report new understanding, applications, properties and synthesis of materials. The journals have a strong history of publishing quality reports of interest to interdisciplinary communities and providing an efficient and rigorous service through peer review and publication. The journals are led by an international team of Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors who are all active researchers in their fields. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C are separated by the intended application of the material studied. Broadly, applications in energy and sustainability are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry A, applications in biology and medicine are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry B, and applications in optical, magnetic and electronic devices are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry C. More than one Journal of Materials Chemistry journal may be suitable for certain fields and researchers are encouraged to submit their paper to the journal that they feel best fits for their particular article. Example topic areas within the scope of Journal of Materials Chemistry B are listed below. This list is neither exhaustive nor exclusive. Antifouling coatings Biocompatible materials Bioelectronics Bioimaging Biomimetics Biomineralisation Bionics Biosensors Diagnostics Drug delivery Gene delivery Immunobiology Nanomedicine Regenerative medicine & Tissue engineering Scaffolds Soft robotics Stem cells Therapeutic devices image block All articles published in Journal of Materials Chemistry B from 2019 onwards will be indexed in MEDLINE®. Articles that primarily focus on providing insight into the underlying science and performance of biomaterials within a biological environment are more suited to our companion journal, Biomaterials Science.
