Physicochemical and In Vitro Evaluation of Drug Delivery of an Antibacterial Synthetic Benzophenone in Biodegradable PLGA Nanoparticles.

Due to the increasing incidents of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, the development of new antibiotics and their efficient formulation for suitable administration is crucial. Currently, one group of promising antimicrobial compounds are the benzophenone tetra-amides which show good activity even against gram-positive, drug-resistant pathogens. These compounds suffer from poor water solubility and bioavailability.
