Bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation impose a heavy burden on the medical system.
Bacterial adhesion on implant materials would induce inflammation and result in implant …

Infection, as a common postoperative complication of orthopedic surgery, is the main reason
leading to implant failure. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are considered as a promising …

Biofilms have been related to the persistence of infections on medical implants, and these
cannot be eradicated because of the resistance of biofilm structures. Therefore, a …

Implant-related infections (IRIs) are a serious complication after orthopedic surgery,
especially when a biofilm develops and establishes physical and chemical barriers …

Biofilm formation is a main challenge in treatment of bone-implant-associated infections,
resulting in tolerance to immune system and antibiotics. However, smart non-surgical or non …

Bacterial infection and lack of bone tissue integration are two major concerns of orthopedic
implants. In addition, osteoinductivity often decreases and toxicity may arise when …

Background The success of biomedical implants in orthopedic and dental applications is
usually limited due to insufficient bone‐implant integration, and implant‐related infections …

Thin-film composite (TFC) membranes still suffer from fouling and biofouling. In this work, by
incorporating a graphene oxide (GO)–silver-based metal–organic framework (Ag-MOF) into …

Despite the tremendous efforts made in the past decades, severe side/toxic effects and poor
bioavailability still represent the main challenges that hinder the clinical translation of drug …

Orthopaedic implants are recognised as important therapeutic devices in the successful
clinical management of a wide range of orthopaedic conditions. However, implant-related …
