A novel synthetic synovial fluid model for investigating biofilm formation and antibiotic susceptibility in prosthetic joint infections

ABSTRACT There is growing evidence that bacteria encountered in prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) form surface-attached biofilms on prostheses, as well as biofilm aggregates embedded in synovial fluid and tissues. However, in vitro models allowing the investigation of these biofilms and the assessm...
