Monocyclic β-lactams loaded on hydroxyapatite: new biomaterials with enhanced antibacterial activity against resistant strains
Abstract The development of biomaterials able to act against a wide range of bacteria, including antibiotic resistant bacteria, is of great importance since bacterial colonization is one of the main causes of implant failure. In this work, we explored the possibility to functionalize hydroxyapatite...
