Nitric Oxide-Containing Nanoparticles as an Antimicrobial Agent and Enhancer of Wound Healing

[摘要] Nitric oxide (NO) is known to be involved in wound healing and to have antimicrobial actions. Developing a means of delivering a diatomic, gaseous free radical has been a technical challenge. Using a combination of techniques, Martinez and colleagues have developed an ingenious method of storing NO, and they demonstrate its efficacy in treating infected wounds.
