Antimicrobial Action of a Biodegradable Thermoplastic Impregnated with Vancomycin for Use in 3D Printing Technology

Abstract This study explores the potential of vancomycin-impregnated polylactic acid (V-PLA) as a novel biomaterial for orthopedic applications. V-PLA combines the biocompatibility of PLA with the antimicrobial properties of vancomycin, making it a promising candidate for managing orthopedic infecti...
