Formulation of a reactive oxygen producing calcium sulphate cement as an anti-bacterial hard tissue scaffold

Abstract Prophylactic antibiotic bone cements are extensively used in orthopaedics. However, the development of antimicrobial resistance to antibiotics, demonstrates a need to find alternative treatments. Herein, an antimicrobial honey (SurgihoneyRO-SHRO) has been successfully incorporated into a ca...
