| Popis: | Some infectious agents frequently act on human body. Multi-drug resistant microorganisms (MDR) develop the capacity to stabilize biofilms. The use of antimicrobials loaded nanoparticles can defeat antibiotic resistance mechanism. The major aim of this study was the synthesis and physico-chemical characterization of Colistin molecules intercalated nanoparticles in order to enhance antibiotic efficacy against multi-drug resistant microorganisms. Advanced characterization techniques were used to analyze new nanostructures containing antibiotics in order to improve antimicrobial efficacy of the free drug. Nano-encapsulated Colistin is presumed to be more efficient in the eradication of severe infections caused by MDR. |
