Article Synopsis
- The strategy for treating osteomyelitis involves surgical removal of infected tissue, antibiotic therapy, and using materials like cements and scaffolds for bone repair and drug delivery.
- The study focused on creating a cost-effective hybrid biomaterial made from PLGA and ciprofloxacin that was applied to titanium plates using a specialized laser technique.
- The resulting PLGA-ciprofloxacin scaffolds showed effective antibacterial properties and a sustained drug release for 45 days, indicating their potential for treating bone infections.
The current nanomedicinal approach combines medicinal plants and nanotechnology to create new scaffolds with enhanced bioavailability, biodistribution and controlled release. In an innovative approach to herb encapsulation in nanosized chitosan matrices, wild-grown Romanian was used to prepare two new chitosan nanocarriers. The first carrier preparation involved the nanoencapsulation of hellebore in chitosan.
