Induced Membrane Bone Grafting Technique for Treatment of Large Postinfectious Acetabular Bone Defects

Arthroplasty Today, 2020
Management of large acetabular bone defects is challenging. The Masquelet technique has successfully reconstructed segmental defects in long bones arising from trauma, tumors, or infection but not been described for large acetabular defects. We present 3

Spores-on-a-chip: new frontiers for spore research

Trends in Microbiology, 2022
In recent years, microfluidic technologies have become widespread in biological science. However, the suitability of this technique for understanding different aspects of spore research has hardly been considered. Herein, we review recent developments in 'spores-on-a-chip' technologies, highlighting how they could be exploited to drive new frontiers in

The Bactericidal Activity and Spore Inhibition Effect of Manuka Honey against Clostridioides Difficile

Antibiotics, 2020
Clostridioides difficile colitis overgrowth occurs when the normal gut microbiome becomes disrupted, often due to antibiotics. Effective treatment remains elusive, due partly to the persistence of its spores in the gut.
