Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Neben der strukturgebenden Funktion können Knochenersatzstoffe auch als Vehikel für die lokale Antibiotikafreisetzung dienen, um Infektionen der Knochen vorzubeugen oder zu behandeln.
Material und Methoden
Die Sättigung und antibiotische Wirksamkeit von Gentamicin und Levofloxacin mit Healos® wurde in vitro überprüft und mit Healos® ohne Antibiotikazusatz verglichen. Die antibiotisch gesättigten Knochenersatzstoffe wurden unverdünnt und in 10- sowie 100facher Verdünnung auf ihre Aktivität gegen spondylodiszitisspezifische Keime auf verschiedenen Agarplatten nach der Agardiffusionsmethode getestet.
Ergebnisse
Alle antibiotikumgesättigten und verdünnten Kollagen/HA-Proben zeigten ellipsenförmige Hemmhöfe auf den entsprechenden Agarplatten. Für beide Antibiotika konnte ein linearer Zusammenhang zwischen Hemmhofgröße und Verdünnung festgestellt werden.
Schlussfolgerung
Die antibakterielle Wirkung des antibiotikumgesättigten Kollagen/HA entspricht der antibiotischen Verdünnung. Die Ergebnisse sollten auf In-vivo-Studien ausgeweitet werden, um die antibakterielle Effizienz der Antibiotikum gesättigten Knochenersatzstoffe nach Implantation zu bestimmen.
Abstract
Background
The functions of synthetic bone graft substitutes include not only structural support to provide bone healing and osseous ingrowth but also the ability to serve as a local antibiotic delivery system to prevent or treat infections of the spine.
Material and Methods
The impregnation and antibiotic efficiency of gentamicin and levofloxacin with Healos was investigated in vitro and compared with Healos without an antibiotic additive. These antibiotic-loaded bone graft substitutes were examined without dilution and with 10-fold and 100-fold dilution for activity against spondylodiscitis-causing bacteria on different agar plates using an agar diffusion method.
Results
All hydroxyapatite (HA)/collagen-saturated diluted antibiotics showed elliptical inhibition zones on the corresponding agar plates. For both antibiotics, there was a linear correlation between dilution and area of the inhibition zone.
Conclusion
The analysis showed that the antimicrobial activity of HA/collagen-saturated antibiotics corresponded to the antimicrobial dilutions. These results should be further analyzed using in vivo studies to determine the remaining antibiotic efficiency after implantation of bone graft substitutes.
