Biofilms present a great challenge in antimicrobial therapy due to their inherent tolerance conventional antibiotics, promoting the need for advanced drug delivery strategies that improve therapy. While various nanoparticles (NPs) have been reported this purpose, DNA-based NPs remain largely unexploited resource against biofilm-associated infections. To fill gap and lay groundwork potential therapeutic exploitation, we investigated diffusion, penetration, retention behaviors of three nanocarriers -plain or modified-within P. aeruginosa biofilms. Watson-Crick base pairing hydrophobic interactions mediated formation plain whilst electrostatic interaction enabled optimization coated via microfluidic mixing. We assessed with biofilm structures Single Plane Illumination Microscopy - Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (SPIM-FCS) Confocal Laser Scanning (CLSM). demonstrate impact parameters on physicochemical properties modified DNA subsequent distinct biofilm. Our results show single stranded micelles (ssDNA micelle) tetrahedral nanostructures (TDN) had similar diffusion penetration profiles, whereas chitosan-coated TDN (TDN-Chit) showed reduced increased retention. This is attributable relatively larger size positive surface charge TDN-Chit NPs. The study shows first foremost can be used as building block antibiofilm therapeutics. Moreover, overall behavioral findings are pivotal strategic selection agents encapsulated within these structures, possibly affecting treatment efficacy. research not only highlights underexplored but also advocates further studies using different refine nanocarrier systems targeted treatments biofilm-related
