Polymer matrix of biofilm in Klebsiella pneumoniae reduced by sub-MIC hydrogen peroxide enhances cefotaxime efficacy

Highlights

➡️Hydrogen peroxide enhances antibiotic efficacy by disrupting the biofilm matrix of cefotaxime-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae at sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs).
➡️Synergistic antimicrobial effect: hydrogen peroxide reduced the cefotaxime MIC from 1,000 μg/mL to 250 μg/mL in K. pneumoniae antibiotic-resistant isolates.
➡️Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed hydrogen peroxide-induced pores and channels that weakened biofilm integrity and decreased biofilm formation.
➡️Combined hydrogen peroxide and cefotaxime therapy demonstrated significantly stronger biofilm inhibition than either treatment alone, suggesting a promising approach against antibiotic-resistant K. pneumoniae infections.

Application of polymeric surfactants in research and development of drugs applied topically to the skin and mucous membranes

Highlights

➡️Polymeric surfactants enhance topical and mucosal drug delivery by reducing surface and interfacial tension, improving emulsification efficiency in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations.
➡️Improved formulation stability through steric and electrostatic mechanisms: Polymeric surfactants strengthen emulsion stability in ointments and creams by preventing phase separation and aggregation.
➡️Rheological properties influence dosage form performance: Viscosity and density modulation by polymeric surfactants plays a critical role in the consistency, spreadability, and stability of topical formulations.
➡️Broad applicability across multiple dosage forms: Beyond creams and ointments, polymeric surfactants support the development of diverse topical and mucosal drug delivery systems.

Comparison of the optical and mechanical properties of plastics before and after ethylene oxide sterilization

Highlights

➡️Ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization effectively preserves the mechanical properties and performance of medical-grade polymers.
➡️Common polymers such as polyethylenes, polypropylenes, polyesters, and polycarbonates show excellent compatibility with EO sterilization.
➡️Minimal color change or discoloration occurs in most polymer materials after a single EO sterilization cycle.
➡️EO sterilization ensures safe and reliable processing of disposable medical devices without degrading polymer structure or integrity.

🦷 How does chemistry shape cavity prevention?

A fissure sealant may look like a glossy coating, but it's a powerful barrier that stops cavities before they start. Scientists from Wroclaw Medical University and Wrocław University of Science and Technology examined how the chemistry and structure of sealant materials determine their strength and durability.

Their study showed that Arkona Fissure Sealant (AFS) achieved the highest surface energy, hardness, and elasticity while releasing the most fluoride over time — helping enamel resist decay. Advanced analyses such as FTIR spectroscopy, SEM imaging, and fluoride testing revealed how even microscopic differences in composition can change how well the sealant bonds and protects.

As the authors emphasize, prevention in dentistry begins at the molecular level — where physics and chemistry combine to keep teeth healthy.

Voodoo Science: The Road from Foolishness to Fraud is a book published in 2000 by physics professor Robert L. Park, critical of research that falls short of adhering to the scientific method. Other people have used the term "voodoo science", but amongst academics it is most closely associated with Park. Park offers no explanation as to why he appropriated the word voodoo to describe the four categories detailed below. The book is critical of, among other things, homeopathy, cold fusion and the International Space Station.

Altmetric in Polimery w Medycynie - Polymers in Medicine

We’ve chosen to embed Altmetric Badges on our publications to help authors track the attention their research is receiving. By tracking unique identifiers such as DOIs, Altmetric collects article-level metrics and online conversations around articles published in Polim Med. Online mentions that contain links to the abstract landing page are picked up and collated, and the result is the Altmetric Attention Score and Badge.

You will find the Altmetric Badge at the top of each article’s page. When you click on the Altmetric Badge, you will be directed to the Altmetric Details Page, which will show you every mention for your article across Twitter, blogs, mass media outlets, Facebook, and more. View this video for an overview of the Altmetric Details Page.

Why use Altmetric?
Altmetrics can be useful to researchers who are keen on (1) building their online presence, (2) demonstrating the broader impact of their work, and (3) communicating the story of their research to grant review committees and panels. To leverage this information, consider using Altmetric data to:

Identify coverage and wider dissemination of your research to use as evidence in CVs or funding applications;
View who is talking about your research, and identify potential new collaborators and build relationships with key influencers;
Monitor other research in your field and see how it has been received by a broader audience;
Manage your online reputation, and actively engage with comments and conversation about your work.

New Index Copernicus Value

The Index Copernicus Value (ICV) of Polimery w Medycynie - Polymers in Medicine is 125.42 for 2024. Special thanks go to all our authors, reviewers and section editors, whose hard work, commitment and competence have made this achievement possible.

Index Copernicus Value is an evaluation standard for scientific journals. Its unique character is guaranteed by the fact that it enables annual organizing the list of scientific journals from all around the world within ICI Journals Master List. It also gives – in the extended version – specific guidelines in relation to functional areas of a scientific journal that have to be improved in order to increase citation rate. The ICV index has been recognized by e.g. public administration authorities, scientific units and other subject associated with science.

Index Copernicus (IC) is an online database of user-contributed all information, including profiles of scientists, as well as of scientific institutions, publications and projects established in 1999 in Poland, and operated by Index Copernicus International. The database, named after Nicolaus Copernicus (who triggered the Copernican Revolution), has several assessment tools to track the impact of scientific works and publications, individual scientists, or research institutions.

The Office of Research Integrity (ORI) is a U.S. government agency that focuses on research integrity, especially in health. It was created when the Office of Scientific Integrity (OSI) in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Office of Scientific Integrity Review (OSIR) in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health merged in May 1992. The Office of Research Integrity oversees and directs Public Health Service (PHS) research integrity activities on behalf of the Secretary of Health and Human Services, except for the regulatory research integrity activities of the Food and Drug Administration. Organizationally, ORI is located within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH) within the Office of the Secretary of Health and Human Services (OS), in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Our current CiteScore Tracker is 4.1!

CiteScore Tracker follows how the current year’s CiteScore is building month by month, eliminating the need to wait until mid-year to see how a journal performed in the prior year. As new citations are received each month, the metric builds up, so you can get a more up-to-date look at the performance of the journal.

Sham peer review or malicious peer review is a name given to the abuse of a medical peer review process to attack a doctor for personal or other non-medical reasons. The American Medical Association conducted an investigation of medical peer review in 2007 and concluded that while it is easy to allege misconduct and 15% of surveyed physicians indicated that they were aware of peer review misuse or abuse, cases of malicious peer review able to be proven through the legal system are rare.
