Abstract

Surgical site infections (SSI)
occur after the surgery in body parts where the operation took place. In surgeries,
wounds are closed by thread-like materials known as sutures. Some types of
sutures may promote bacteria proliferation which is one of the leading causes
of the SSI. Sutures undergo coating procedure to prevent infection occurrence. In
this study, different types of surgical sutures were coated with natural
antimicrobial agents to evaluate their effect on morphological and mechanical
properties of the surgical sutures. In this context, due to its antimicrobial
ability, chitosan was selected and dissolved in acetic acid solution with other
natural antimicrobial agents (aloe vera and olive leaf extract) through
ultrasound technology. Multifilament silk, multifilament polyester, and
monofilament polyamide sutures were then dipped into those solutions prepared
at different concentrations in order to study the synergistic effect of
antimicrobial agents.  Fourier transform
infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) was performed
to identify the functional groups on the surface of the coated sutures. Suture
surfaces were also analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) to observe the
coating on the surface of sutures. Strong adhesion was determined between the
suture surface and the coating material after long duration of dipping and
drying procedure. It was also found that the coating process increased the
mechanical properties of the sutures.

Abstract





Cerrahi girişim
uygulanan vücut bölgelerinde, ameliyat sonrası cerrahi alan enfeksiyonları
(CAE) ortaya çıkar. Cerrahide yaralar sütür olarak bilinen iplik benzeri
materyallerle kapatılır. Bazı sütür tipleri, CAE'ye sebep olan bakterilerin
çoğalmasına neden olmaktadır. Sütür kaynaklı enfeksiyonun önüne geçmek için
antimikrobiyallerle kaplama yapılır. Bu çalışmada, CAE’nin üstesinden gelmek
amacıyla farklı tipteki cerrahi sütürler doğal antimikrobiyal ajanlarla
kaplanmıştır ve bu ajanların cerrahi sütürlerin morfolojik ve mekanik
özelliklerine olan etkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Bu bağlamda, doğal bir polimer
olan kitosan antimikrobiyal özelliğe sahip olması sebebiyle seçilmiştir ve
kitosan yine doğal antimikrobiyal ajan olan aloe vera ve zeytin yaprağı
ekstresi ile beraber asetik asit çözeltisi içerisinde ultrason teknolojisi
kullanılarak karıştırılıp kaplama solüsyonu hazırlanmıştır. Doğal ajanların
sinerjistik etkisini çalışmak için farklı konsantrasyonlarda hazırlanan
kaplama solüsyonlarına multifilament ipek, multifilament poliester ve
monofilament poliamid sütürler daldırılarak kaplama yapılmıştır. Fourier
dönüşümlü kızılötesi spektroskopisi kullanılarak kaplanmış sütürlerin
üzerindeki fonksiyonel gruplar belirlenmiştir. Sütürlerin yüzeyleri taramalı
elektron mikroskobuyla incelenerek uzun daldırma ve kurutma işlemleri sonrası
kaplama malzemesinin yüzeye güçlü bir şekilde tutunduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca
yapılan mekanik testler sonucunda kaplama işleminin sütür mekanik özelliklerini
arttırdığı tespit edilmiştir.
