Abstract
Objective
The efficient inhibition of bacteria and their by-products from infected root canals is hampered by the limitations of traditional root canal disinfection strategies, bacterial resistance to antibiotic drugs, and regenerative endodontics. Polymeric nanoparticles nanocarrier for controlling antibiotic drug delivery were used to overcome the limitations encountered in endodontics treatment.
Background
Several polymeric nanoparticles have been used for the delivery of ciprofloxacin drug. The application of poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether-block-poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PEG-PLGA) nanoparticles has highlighted the clean and safe delivery of ciprofloxacin (CIP) hydrophilic drug for endodontics treatment. PEG/PLGA was prepared using the solid/oil/water method and the CIP was loaded into polymeric nanoparticles via an ion pairing agent.
Results
The CIP-loaded PEG-PLGA nanoparticles have a spherical shape with a 120 ± 0.43 nm size, the CIP encapsulating efficiency was 63.26 ± 9.24% with a loading content of 7.75 ± 1.13%, and sustained release was achieved over 168 h which followed Higuchi model with a non-Fickian mechanism. Moreover, CIP-loaded PEG-PLGA had low cytotoxicity to the stem cells of the apical papilla.
Conclusion
The results conclude invigorating future perspectives of polymeric nanoparticles for a wide range of drug delivery for various disease treatments. It’s anticipated that these polymeric nanoparticles may divert new expectations in the future for topical antibiotic drug delivery with discrete intracellular medicament, and a safe and clean environment.
