Silver oxynitrate – an efficacious compound for the prevention and eradication of dual-species biofilms

Preventing and eradicating biofilms remains a challenge in clinical and industrial settings. Recently, the present authors demonstrated that silver oxynitrate (Ag₇NO₁₁) prevented and eradicated single-species planktonic and biofilm populations of numerous microbes at lower concentrations than other silver (Ag) compounds. Here, the antimicrobial and anti-biofilm efficacy of Ag₇NO₁₁ is elaborated by testing its in vitro activity against …
