The animal model deals with the species other than the human, as it can imitate the disease
progression, its' diagnosis as well as a treatment similar to human. Discovery of a drug …

Implant-associated infection (IAI) is increasingly emerging as a serious threat with the
massive application of biomaterials. Bacteria attached to the surface of implants are often …

Abstract Zinc (Zn) and silver (Ag) are co-implanted into titanium by plasma immersion ion
implantation. A Zn containing film with Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) possessing a wide size …

Chronic implant-related bone infections are a major problem in orthopedic and trauma-
related surgery with severe consequences for the affected patients. As antibiotic resistance …

Implant-associated infections (IAI) are often recurrent, expensive to treat, and associated
with high rates of morbidity, if not mortality. We biofunctionalized the surface of additively …

Prevention of periprosthetic infection (PPI) by inhibiting biofilm formation on prostheses is
crucial to orthopedic surgery. In this work, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are fabricated in situ …

Antibiotic prophylaxis is a routine procedure in orthopedic surgery. Various local antibiotic
delivery techniques are used to reduce bone-and soft tissue-related infection. The objective …

Implant-related infection is a feared complication in orthopedic and trauma surgery with
tremendous consequences for the patient. To reduce this risk, administration of …

Background The use of antibiotic-coated implants may reduce the rate of infection and
facilitate fracture healing after surgical treatment of tibial shaft fractures. A new …

Additive manufacturing has facilitated fabrication of complex and patient-specific metallic
meta-biomaterials that offer an unprecedented collection of mechanical, mass transport, and …
