Abstract: Purpose. To develop a new in vitro model of prosthetic vascular graft infection (PVGI) and evaluate antimicrobial and biofilm‐disrupting efficacy of 0.1% octenidine dihydrochloride, 10% povidone‐iodine and 0.02% chlorhexidine digluconate against biofilm‐producing Staphylococcus aureus (S.… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.7377
Abstract: Objectives The success of prosthetic vascular grafts in the management of peripheral arterial disease is frequently limited by the development of anastomotic neointimal hyperplasia (ANIH), with the host response to prosthetic grafts beginning soon after… read more here.
