Twisting Electrospun Nanofiber Fine Strips into Functional Sutures for Sustained Co-delivery of Gentamicin and Silver

Surgical site infections (SSIs) represent the most common nosocomial infection among surgical patients. In order to prevent SSIs in a sustained manner and lessen side effects, we developed a twisting method for generation of nanofiber-based sutures capable of simultaneous delivery of silver and gent...
