The purpose of the present study was to create resorbable nanoparticles (NPs) using poly(lactic-coglycolic
acid) (PLGA) to develop novel antibacterial therapeutics for treating chronic wound infections that are susceptible to recurrent infections. By first performing a release study, it was possible to predict the behavior of the different PLGA NP formulations and assess the efficacy of the nanocomposite drug delivery system. Overall, these PLGA NP formulations showed the potential of a burst release, followed by a sustained release of antibiotics from antibiotics-loaded PLGA NPs in a controlled manner. In the future, this can help prevent the emergence of recurrent infections in the treatment of chronic wounds and reduce the number of medical dressing changes.
