Formulation of chitosam-coated N-Acetylcysteine-Loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (CH-NAC-NLC) coating for urinary catheters

Formulation of chitosam-coated N-Acetylcysteine-Loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (CH-NAC-NLC) coating for urinary catheters

One of the mechanisms of pathogenesis of CAUTIs is through biofilm formation on urinary catheter surfaces which renders bacteria resistant to the immune system and several antimicrobial agents (Trautner & Darouiche, 2004). To address this, we conducted a study aimed to formulate CH-NAC-NLC coati...
