Levofloxacin impregnation and extended release: Concentration model for insulin catheters
Increasing the lifetime of percutaneous insulin delivery catheters to minimize painful needle sticks increases the risk of infection. To combat surface-adherent bacteria and potential biofilm formation, we developed a method to impregnate levofloxacin antibiotic into the outer polymer of the cathete...
