Transtympanic delivery of V2O5 nanowires with a tympanic-membrane penetrating peptide

Vanadium pentoxide (V 2 O 5 ) nanowires were modified with trans-tympanic peptides for enhanced trans-tympanic permeability. The as-modified nanowires retain haloperoxidase-like catalytic activities that can be harnessed to combat otitis media pathogens.
