Synthesis, Drug Release, and Antibacterial Properties of Novel Dendritic CHX-SrCl<sub>2</sub> and CHX-ZnCl<sub>2</sub> Particles

This work demonstrated for the first time the synthesis of novel chlorhexidine particles containing strontium and zinc, to provide an effective, affordable, and safe intervention in the treatment of recurrent infections found in Medicine and Dentistry. The CHX-SrCl<sub>2</sub> and CHX-Zn...
