Abstract Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) remains the gold standard antibiotic carrier in management of osteomyelitis. However, biodegradable ceramic carriers may exhibit more efficient elution properties. Through zone inhibition (ZOI) testing and biofilm killing assays , we assessed vitro efficacy vancomycin released from calcium sulfate (PG‐CSH) PMMA beads as on clinical strains Staphylococcus aureus epidermidis which were isolated sonication fluid orthopedic implant‐associated infections....
