Publication number: 20250161205Abstract: A biocompatible antimicrobial composition effective against microbial biofilms, including in vivo biofilms containing gram-positive bacteria, can be delivered to and used near the spinal column of vertebrates. Once introduced to an area colonized with a bacterial biofilm, particularly an intervertebral disc, the antimicrobial composition weakens the EPS/ECPS macromolecules of the biofilm, which makes the entire biofilm structure susceptible to being dislodged from the affected area or biosorbed. Additionally or alternatively, certain of the subcomponents of the solute component, as well as perhaps the organic liquid(s) of the solvent component, might lyse microbes, particularly gram-positive bacteria, previously protected by the EPS/ECPS macromolecules. Swelling of and around previously impacted intervertebral discs can be reduced or eliminated, often resulting in appreciable reductions in patient pain levels.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2025Publication date: May 22, 2025Applicant: Next Science IP Holdings Pty LtdInventor: Matthew F.
