dc.description.abstract | Implant-associated bacterial infections are difficult to treat due to the tendency of biofilm formation on implant surfaces, which protects embedded pathogens from host defense and impedes antibiotic penetration, rendering systemic antibiotic injections ineffective. Here, we test the hypothesis that implant coatings that reduce bacterial colonization would make planktonic bacteria within the periprosthetic environment more susceptible to conventional systemic antibiotic treatment. We covalently grafted zwitterionic polymer brushes poly(sulfobetaine methacryate) from Ti6Al4V surface to increase the substrate surface hydrophilicity and reduce staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) adhesion. Using a mouse femoral intramedullary (IM) canal infection model, we showed that the anti-fouling coating applied to Ti6Al4V IM implants, when combined with a single vancomycin systemic injection, significantly suppressed both bacterial colonization on implant surfaces and the periprosthetic infections, outperforming either treatment alone. This work supports the hypothesis that grafting anti-fouling polymers to implant surfaces improves the efficacy of systemic antibiotic injections to combat periprosthetic infections. | |
