antimicrobial activity and mechanical properties of antibiotic-loaded
bone cement (ALBC) loaded with powdered antibiotic, powdered antibiotic
with inert filler (xylitol), or liquid antibiotic, particularly focusing
on vancomycin and amphotericin B. Cement specimens loaded with 2 g of vancomycin or amphotericin
B powder (powder group), 2 g of antibiotic powder and 2 g of xylitol
(xylitol group) or 12 ml of antibiotic solution containing 2 g of
antibiotic (liquid group) were tested.Objectives
