Interaction of hydroxyapatite and chitosan with gentamicin and their antimicrobial activities: DFT and molecular docking approach by Nassima Bou-ydia, Ben-issa El miraoui, Latifa Laallam, Ahmed Jouaiti

“… Motivated by the potential use of hydroxyapatite and chitosan as drug delivery systems for the antibiotic gentamicin in the coating of metal implants, a theoretical study was conducted to investigate the interaction mechanisms among these three compounds, assess the stability of the resulting coating, and evaluate the inhibitory potential of chitosan and gentamicin against Protein A from Staphylococcus aureus. The results of this study demonstrate that hydroxyapatite, chitosan, and gentamicin exhibit a low HOMO-LUMO energy gap, indicating that electron transfer between their molecular orbitals can occur readily due to the molecules’ structural flexibility. …”
