Antimicrobial peptides enable an alternate approach to developing antimicrobial coatings due to their targeting of the membranes of the bacteria. High specific activity is achieved by orienting the peptides so that the antimicrobial ends of the peptides maximally contact the bacteria. In one embodiment, one end of the peptide is covalently attached directly to the substrate. In another embodiment, the peptides are immobilized on the substrate using a coupling agent or tether. Non-covalent methods include coating the peptide onto the substrate or physiochemically immobilizing the peptides on the substrate using highly specific interactions, such as the biotin/avidin or streptavidin system. The compositions are substantially non-leaching, antifouling, and non-hemolytic. The immobilized peptides retain sufficient flexibility and mobility to interact with and de endocytosed by the bacteria, viruses, and/or fungi upon exposure. Immobilizing the peptides to the substrate reduces concerns regarding toxicity of the peptides and the development of antimicrobial resistance, while presenting substantially all of the peptide at the site of action at the surface of the substrate.

The invention provides a three-dimensional hollow material, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof in electrochemical energy storage devices. The three-dimensional hollow material is a self-supporting three-dimensional hollow material obtained through high-temperature carbonization of a foam resin material containing an ether bond under normal-temperature oxygen-free inert atmosphere conditions. The three-dimensional hollow material can be used as an electrode material to form a three-dimensional hollow carbon-based electrode; and the three-dimensional hollow material also can be compounded with a high-specific activity active electrode material to form a composite electrode. The three-dimensional hollow carbon-based electrode and the composite electrode can be applied to the electrochemical energy storage devices. The prepared three-dimensional structure and hollow structure coupled flexible three-dimensional hollow material can be used as an electrochemical energy storage device electrode or current collector. For example, the three-dimensional hollow material can solve the instability problem during intercalation/deintercalation of large ions (such as Na<+> and K<+>) and obtain a high specific capacity and a long life when used as a sodium and potassium ion battery negative electrode.
