Study	Elution	Compression
Adams et al. [1]	High-dose cement delivers over 4 weeks for a variety of antimicrobials	Not studied
Kuechle et al. [11]	Increased porosity leads to increased delivery for high-dose cement	Not studied
Lautenschlager et al. [12]	Not studied	The addition of up to 10 g of gentamicin sulfate to Simplex P caused gradual loss in mechanical strength as dose increased from low to high-dose with a single mixing method
Lewis and Bhattaram [13]	Not studied	Low-dose ALBC commercially premixed vs hand mixed no difference in compressive strength, fatigue, or saline uptake
McLaren et al. [15]	Mixing method did not change the elution properties of low-dose cement	Unpublished data, mixing method did not affect compressive strength for low-dose cement
