A drug delivery system based on fully biodegradable thermosensitive hydrogels enabling controlled antibiotic release may support the management of implant-associated infections. In this work, the lipopeptide antibiotic daptomycin was encapsulated in hydrogel networks consisting of vinyl sulfonated triblock copolymers of PEG-p(HPMAm-lac1,2) and thiolated hyaluronic acid. High concentrations of active daptomycin exceeding the minimum biofilm eradicating concentration were sustainably eluted from the biodegradable carrier.

Abstract

A drug delivery system based on fully biodegradable thermosensitive hydrogels enabling controlled antibiotic release may support the management of implant-associated infections. In this work, the lipopeptide antibiotic daptomycin was encapsulated in hydrogel networks consisting of vinyl sulfonated triblock copolymers of PEG-p(HPMAm-lac1,2) and thiolated hyaluronic acid. High concentrations of active daptomycin exceeding the minimum biofilm eradicating concentration were sustainably eluted from the biodegradable carrier.
