Biomaterials Associated Infection : Immunological Aspects and Antimicrobial Strategies

Biomaterials associated infection (BAI) is one of the most common complications associated with implantation of any biomaterial regardless of form or function.  These infections usually involve bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on the biomaterial itself, rendering the infection impervious...
