Prevention and Killing Efficacy of Carbapenem Resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> (CRE) and Vancomycin Resistant <i>Enterococci</i> (VRE) Biofilms by Antibiotic-Loaded Calcium Sulfate Beads

Prevention and Killing Efficacy of Carbapenem Resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> (CRE) and Vancomycin Resistant <i>Enterococci</i> (VRE) Biofilms by Antibiotic-Loaded Calcium Sulfate Beads

Carbapenem-resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> (CRE) and vancomycin-resistant <i>Enterococci</i> (VRE) have emerged as multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens associated with periprosthetic joint infections (PJI). In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of antibiotic-loaded calc...
