Researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus studied a new method to deliver antibiotics, specifically gentamicin, directly into the bladder tissue to better treat UTIs.

The researchers discovered that nanogel technology can carry more than enough gentamicin to be effective - about 36% more gentamicin inside cells compared to standard antibiotic delivery methods.

The nanogel includes 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, tetraethyl dimethacrylate, and acrylic acid (HTA) monomers synthesized “in 4× solvent ratio at ~70 % double-bond conversion,” according to the authors.
