Efficacy of pH-Responsive Surface Functionalized Titanium Screws in Treating Implant-associated S. aureus Osteomyelitis with Biofilms Formation. [PDF]
In the treatment of implant‐associated S. aureus osteomyelitis (IASO), antibiotics often fail to eradicate the bacteria in the osteocyte lacuno‐canalicular network, leading to a high implant failure rate. To overcome this, titanium screws are modified with antimicrobial peptides (HHC36)‐loaded titania nanotubes, which integrate pH‐responsive ...
