Abstract:
The influence of antibiotic content in CMW1 bone cement on its bacteriostatic and mechanical properties has been investigated. It was found that antibiotics (beta lactams, II and III generation cefalosporins) preserved their bacteriostatic properties within bone cement. No significant impact of antibiotic content within CMW1 on its mechanical properties has been demonstrated.
