ABSTRACT
Orthopedic implant infections cause a serious threat after implantation. The major source of implant infection is biofilms which are highly tolerant to antibiotics due to the presence of rigid biofilm matrix. Hence to overcome biofilm mediated implant infections, we developed a novel antibiofilm agent, palladium (II) thiazolinyl picolinamide complex (Pd(II)-E). From our study, it was found that Pd(II)-E have profound biofilm inhibition activity and also reduced various virulence factors of Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) including slime synthesis, Phenol soluble modulin (PSM) mediated spreading, Exopolysaccharides production and staphyloxanthin synthesis. Further, Pd(II)-E was coated over the titanium plates which was confirmed using EDX (Energy Dispersive X-Ray) analysis. The Pd(II)-E coated plates were able to prevent the biofilm formation on them which was evident under a Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and several virulent genes were found to be downregulated in the biofilms on the coated titanium plates which confirmed by qPCR. From our findings, it was found that Pd(II)-E coated titanium implants would be an effective alternate approach for preventing biofilm mediated implant infections.
