A novel synthetic synovial fluid model for investigating biofilm formation and antibiotic susceptibility in prosthetic joint infections by Amber De Bleeckere, Frits van Charante, Thibault Debord, Stien Vandendriessche, Michiel De Cock, Marte Verstraete, Fabien Lamret, Bram Lories, Jerina Boelens, Fany Reffuveille, Hans P. Steenackers, Tom Coenye

“…These data indicate that the in vitro SSF2 model could be a valuable addition to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility of biofilm-like aggregates in the context of PJI.IMPORTANCEInfections after joint replacement are rare but can lead to severe complications as they are difficult to treat due to the ability of pathogens to form surface-attached biofilms on the prosthesis as well as biofilm aggregates in the tissue and synovial fluid. …”
