Biomechanical comparison of tigecycline loaded bone cement with vancomycin and daptomycin loaded bone cements

摘要

The objectives of this study were “1” to analyze the compressive and tensile mechanical strength characteristics of tigecycline loaded bone cement and “2” to compare them with those of vancomycin and daptomycin loaded bone cements which are used in prosthetic joint infections complicated with resistant microorganisms.
