Abstract:
Antibacterial activity of powdered preparations based on copper and silver nanoparticles was compared with activity of the reference preparation Baneocin on the model of local staphylococcal infection in white rats. The developed preparations exhibited pronounced antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis strains in vivo significantly (p<0.001) exceeding that of Baneocin, reduced microbial contamination of the wound on day 5 of study by 2 lg and more in comparison with bacterial load before treatment, and provided effective decontamination of the wound within 7-10 days.
