Multidrug-resistant biofilms are highly resistant to current antimicrobial therapies. We have developed an antimicrobial platform that integrates the bacteria-killing phytochemical carvacrol into dynamically crosslinked polymer nanocomposites (DCPNs). Taking advantage of a reversibly crosslinked Schiff-base scaffold throughout the engineered emulsions, DCPNs
