Polish scientists develop ‘nanoflowers’ for targeted antibiotic delivery in bone infections
Polish researchers have developed microscopic “nanoflowers” that allow antibiotics to be delivered directly to infected bones, enabling drugs to act faster, more effectively, and with reduced toxicity. The technology could be a breakthrough in the treatment of osteomyelitis, a severe bone and bone marrow disease that can lead to bone necrosis and growth disorders in children.
