Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of levofloxacin-chitosan microsphere administrated in early stage seawater immersed wound of soft tissue. Methods A rabbit model of seawater immersed wound of soft tissue was reproduced. Among the control group (n=8) and the group locally treated with levofloxacin powder (n=8) or levofloxacin-chitosan microsphere (n=8), the bacteria number in the wound, the serum endotoxin level, the content of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?) in the wound and the serum were assayed before and 6, 12, 24, 48, 72h after seawater immersion. In the latter 2 groups, levofloxaxin concentration in plasma and wound was compared 6, 12, 24, 48, 72h after seawater immersion. Results The bacteria number of the wound in the microsphere group and levofloxacin powder group was lower than that in the control group since 6h after seawater immersion(P
