“…Traditional antibiotics still suffer from issues of efficacy and feasibility [ 14 , 15 ]. They are not able to target bone infection sites and are unsuccessful at the biofilm, resulting in unsatisfactory therapeutic effects.…”

“…An evaluation of the hemolytic activity of NPs was performed by conducting hemolysis of rat erythrocytes using a previously described procedure. [ 43 ] A fresh whole blood sample was collected from anesthetized rats using heparin‐containing anticoagulation tubes and blood lancets. The red blood cells were subsequently separated from whole blood through centrifugation (3000 rpm, 5 min) and washed with sterile PBS three times at 4 °C.…”

“…[40] Biofilms can not only form on the skin and teeth, but also attach to medical implants such as catheters and prostheses, leading to continuous infection. [41] According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) of the United States of America, 80% of bacterial infections in the body are related to bacterial biofilms, [42,43] so it is crucial to impair or even inhibit the formation of biofilms during treatment. Therefore, Ti6Al4V disks were used as the biofilm growth substrate, and the inhibitory effect of the NPs on MRSA biofilms was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) (Figure 5b).…”

“…The use of traditional antibiotic therapies for PJI still has problems that cannot be solved; they do not effectively target the site of bone infection, leading to unsatisfactory treatment outcomes Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology frontiersin.org (Zhang et al, 2022). Therefore, bone-targeted and bacterial-targeted therapies have been extensively studied in bone infections.…”
