Common antibiotic therapies to treat bacterial infections are associated with systemic side effects and the development of resistance, directly connected duration dosage. Local drug delivery systems (DDSs) offer an alternative by localising antibiotics thereby limiting their while reducing dosage necessary. A biodegradable polyester polycaprolactone (PCL)-based DDS was thus produced, containing various clinically relevant drugs. It shown that incorporation four distinct classes (amoxicillin, doxycycline, metronidazole rifampicin), very high mass fractions ranging up 20 wt%, feasible within PCL matrix. This showed capacity for effective sustained release. The release kinetics over 14 days were proven, showing a significant decrease in cytotoxicity smooth muscle cells as well antibacterial effect on (1) aerobic, (2) anaerobic, (3) Gram-positive (4) Gram-negative pathogens vitro. demonstrated markedly diminished cytotoxic impact owing comparison pure antibiotics, simultaneously maintaining efficacy. In conclusion, DDSs more tolerable form administration due hydrophobic matrix causing slower diffusion-controlled release, proven mechanism via Peppa–Sahlin model.

Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest threats to global health and food security today. It becomes increasingly difficult treat infectious disorders because antibiotics, even newest ones, are becoming less effective. One ways taken in Global Plan Action announced at World Health Assembly May 2015 ensure prevention treatment diseases. In order do so, attempts made develop new antimicrobial therapeutics, including biomaterials with antibacterial activity, such as polycationic polymers, polypeptides, polymeric systems, provide non-antibiotic therapeutic agents, selected biologically active nanoparticles chemical compounds. Another key issue preventing from contamination by developing packaging materials, particularly based on degradable polymers biocomposites. This review, a cross-sectional way, describes most significant research activities conducted recent years field development materials polymer composites properties. We focus natural i.e., polysaccharides which present mechanism for combating many highly pathogenic microorganisms. also attempt use this knowledge obtain synthetic similar activity.
