A biodegradable and antimicrobial polymer coating for metal implants for the prevention of prosthetic joint infection
The aim of this project is to produce antibiotic-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) polymer films by airbrush onto orthopaedic implants to address prosthetic joint infections (PJIs). It covered the development of an airbrush spray-coating technique, the selection and assessment of polymers...
