Electrospun vancomycin-loaded coating on titanium implants for the prevention of implant-associated infections

The objectives of this work were to develop an antibiotic coating on the surface of a titanium plate to determine its antibacterial properties in vitro and in vivo. To prepare vancomycin-coated titanium implants, we adopted the electrospinning nanotechnique. The surface structure of the coating impl...
