Differential Susceptibility of Catheter Biomaterials to Biofilm-Associated Infections and Their Remedy by Drug-Encapsulated Eudragit RL100 Nanoparticles

Differential Susceptibility of Catheter Biomaterials to Biofilm-Associated Infections and Their Remedy by Drug-Encapsulated Eudragit RL100 Nanoparticles

Biofilms are the cause of major bacteriological infections in patients. The complex architecture of <i>Escherichia coli</i> (<i>E. coli</i>) biofilm attached to the surface of catheters has been studied and found to depend on the biomaterial&#8217;s surface properties. Th...
