(author), de Jong, N. (author), van Wamel, Willem J.B. (author), Kooiman, Klazina (author)Bacteria encased in a biofilm poses significant challenges to successful treatment, since both the immune system and antibiotics are ineffective. Sonobactericide, which uses ultrasound and microbubbles, is a potential new strategy for increasing antimicrobial effectiveness or directly killing bacteria. Several studies suggest that...journal article 2022

van Rooij, Tom (author), Beekers, D.I. (author), Lattwein, Kirby R. (author), van der Steen, A.F.W. (author), de Jong, N. (author), Kooiman, Klazina (author)One of the main challenges for ultrasound molecular imaging is acoustically distinguishing nonbound microbubbles from those bound to their molecular target. In this in vitro study, we compared two types of in-house produced targeted lipid-coated microbubbles, either consisting of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, C16:0 (DPPC) or 1...journal article 2017
