Borosilicate bioactive glass synergizing low-dose antibiotic loaded implants to combat bacteria through ATP disruption and oxidative stress to sequentially achieve osseointegration

Bone infection is a catastrophe in clinical orthopedics. Despite being the standard therapy for osteomyelitis, antibiotic-loaded polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement has low efficiency against bacteria in biofilms. Furthermore, high-dose antibiotic-loaded implants carry risks of bacterial resistanc...
