Drug-resistant bacterial infection and biofilm formation are the key inhibitors of wound healing, new strategies urgently needed to address these issues. In this study, we designed a pH-responsive co-assembled peptide hydrogel inhibit Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) promote healing. We synthesized cationic short (Nap-FFKKK) with curcumin at pH ∼ 7.8. The loaded was continuously released in weak acid environment (pH 5.5). lysine-rich inhibited MRSA via electrostatic interaction negatively charged cell surface and, thus, provided reinforcing antibacterial effect curcumin. vitro experiments showed that system considerably reduced minimum inhibitory concentration against by 10-fold promoted healing mouse model MRSA-infected wounds. This study provides simple promising strategy treat drug-resistant infections

In line with the substantial increase in broiler industry worldwide, Clostridium perfringens-induced necrotic enteritis (NE) became a continuous challenge leading to high economic losses, especially after banning antimicrobial growth promoters feeds by many countries. The disease is distributed worldwide either clinical or subclinical form, causing reduction body weight gain and feed conversion ratio, impairing European Broiler Index Production Efficiency Factor. There are several predisposing factors development of NE. Clinical signs varied from inapparent case infection (clostridiosis) obvious enteric (morbidity), followed an mortality level (clostridiosis infection). laboratory diagnoses based on history, signs, gross histopathological lesions, pathogenic agent identification, serological testing, molecular identification. Drinking water treatment most common route for administration antibiotics, such as penicillin, bacitracin, lincomycin.
