Article Synopsis
- - The study created a new rapid-dissolving delivery system using electrospun polyethylene oxide (PEO) fibers for administering antibiotics (metronidazole) and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus) to treat infections in the female genitourinary system.
- - In animal tests, the PEO fibers showed no harmful effects and effectively reduced Gardnerella infections, demonstrating the ability of the fibers to deliver metronidazole and probiotics without causing damage to vaginal tissue.
- - The use of PEO fibers for delivering Lactobacillus acidophilus not only inhibited harmful bacteria in lab tests but also successfully supported colonization in mice, showcasing the potential of this delivery method for vaginal treatments.
