Parametric Study on Nanopattern Bactericidal Activity

Bactericidal Activity

as frequent in those with bactericidal activity (54%) as in those without (56%). The coexistence of bactericidal activity and bacteremia was reproduced and studied in experimentally infected weanling rats. Serum from such rats kills in vitro 95% of conventionally broth-grown bacteria within 10 min, but does not kill organisms obtained from the infected animals. Thus bactericidal activity as con...

Bactericidal Activity of C

Bactericidal antibody is required for direct complement-mediated killing of most pathogenic gram-negative bacteria. Although it has been implicitly assumed that bactericidal antibody functions by increasing complement activation and deposition on the bacterial surface, this assumption may not be valid. We have shown previously (1) that bactericidal IgG increases the bactericidal efficiency of C...

Bactericidal activity of black silicon

Black silicon is a synthetic nanomaterial that contains high aspect ratio nanoprotrusions on its surface, produced through a simple reactive-ion etching technique for use in photovoltaic applications. Surfaces with high aspect-ratio nanofeatures are also common in the natural world, for example, the wings of the dragonfly Diplacodes bipunctata. Here we show that the nanoprotrusions on the surfa...
