Theory of effective drug release from medical implants based on the Higuchi model and physico-chemical hydrodynamics
Combining the approach of colloid transport with the generalized Higuchi theory of drug release and with the concept of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) known in microbiology, the theory of effective drug release from implants has been developed. Effective release of an antibiotic at a concent...
