Abstract Background While antibiotics remain our primary tools against microbial infection, increasing antibiotic resistance (inherent and acquired) is a major detriment to their efficacy. A practical approach maintaining or reversing the efficacy of use other commonly used therapeutics, which show synergistic antibacterial action with antibiotics. Here, we investigated extent synergy between gentamicin anti-inflammatory ketorolac regarding dynamics biofilm growth, rate acquired resistance,...
Peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a major post-arthroplasty complication that warrants alternative antibacterial approaches to improve prophylaxis and treatment outcomes. Local administration of analgesics post-surgery common. Recent studies have demonstrated the antimicrobial potential feasibility dual drug-eluting ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for local applications. However, mechanism action poorly understood, translational value drug-loaded UHMWPE has not been...
