Antimicrobial efficacy of gentamicin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles shows significant reduction in biofilm formation from Escherichia coli in prostatic stents, indicating potential for combatting urose

Key Points

Significant reduction in biofilm formation was observed with gentamicin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles.
Antimicrobial efficacy showed nearly complete inhibition of bacterial growth against Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis.
Evaluation of the nanoparticles involved flow cytometry and biological activity assays, confirming their effectiveness.
This approach highlights the potential of nanoparticles to enhance the design of urogenital devices and reduce infection risks.
