Silica-Polymer Composites as the Novel Antibiotic Delivery Systems for Bone Tissue Infection

Silica-Polymer Composites as the Novel Antibiotic Delivery Systems for Bone Tissue Infection

Bone tissue inflammation, <i>osteomyelitis</i>, is commonly caused by bacterial invasion and requires prolonged antibiotic therapy for weeks or months. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop novel silica-polymer local bone antibiotic delivery systems characterized by a sustained rele...
