Antibacterial coatings
Since a long time, the bacterial contamination of surfaces, leading to biofilm formation, is a major problem in fields as diverse as medical, food or cosmetics even with preventive hygiene protocols. In order to eliminate or reduce bacterial colonization of surfaces and biofilm formation, many prophylactic strategies have emerged. Among them is the elaboration of antifouling surfaces based on a...
متن کاملFlexible Antibacterial Coatings.
This article reviews the present state of the art in the field of flexible antibacterial coatings which efficiently kill bacteria on their surfaces. Coatings are formed using a reactive magnetron sputtering. The effect of the elemental composition and structure of the coating on its antibacterial and mechanical properties is explained. The properties of Cr-Cu-O, Al-Cu-N, and Zr-Cu-N antibacteri...
متن کاملCrystallographic texture in pulsed laser deposited hydroxyapatite bioceramic coatings.
The orientation texture of pulsed laser deposited hydroxyapatite coatings was studied by X-ray diffraction techniques. Increasing the laser energy density of the KrF excimer laser used in the deposition process from 5 to 7 J/cm(2) increases the tendency for the c-axes of the hydroxyapatite grains to be aligned perpendicular to the substrate. This preferred orientation is most pronounced when th...
متن کاملEditorial : Materials Science of Bioceramic Coatings: An Editorial
Presently, the development of novel ceramic materials with improved biomedical functions is at the forefront of health-related issues in many countries. Arguably, research into bioceramics including coatings for endoprosthetic implants has reached a level of involvement and sophistication comparable only to developments ongoing in the realm of electronic ceramics [1]. Despite the fact that calc...
متن کاملInference for Comparing Two Treatments Using Kernel Density Estimation
In randomized clinical trials, nonparametric approaches are considered when assumptions of a parametric approach are not reasonable. Nonparametric approaches have typically concentrated on hypothesis testing and, unlike parametric approaches, have not been amenable to providing measures of treatment efficacy. If X and Y denote the random variables representing the responses on two treatments A ...
