Abstract:Background
Non-leaching antibacterial bone cement can generate long-term antibacterial activity, it cannot treat serious infections that have occurred like antibiotic-loaded bone cement. Currently, the antibacterial activity and biocompatibility of non-leaching cement when loaded with antibiotics have yet to be determined.
Methods
Non-leaching antibacterial nitrofuran bone cement (NFBC) specimens were prepared with low dose and high dose antibiotics. The antibacterial activity and biocompatibility of NFBC lo… Show more
