Antibacterial burst-release from minimal Ag-containing plasma polymer coatings.
Biomaterials releasing silver (Ag) are of interest because of their ability to inhibit pathogenic bacteria including antibiotic-resistant strains. In order to investigate the potential of nanometre-thick Ag polymer (Ag/amino-hydrocarbon) nanocomposite plasma coatings, we studied a comprehensive range of factors such as the plasma deposition process and Ag cation release as well as the antibacte...
متن کاملAntibacterial 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...

Introduction: Acne is a disorder of the pilosebaceous unit of the skin and can present as non inflammatory and or inflammatory lesions. Tretinoin has been used therapeutically for over three decades. It is best known for its comedolytic effects on acne. It also inhibits comedone rupture, thus decreasing inflammatory events. Tretinoin is available in 0.01% to 0.1% as cream, gel or lotion. The ...
متن کاملMineral coatings modulate β-TCP stability and enable growth factor binding and release.
β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is an attractive ceramic for bone tissue repair because of its similar composition to bone mineral and its osteoconductivity. However, compared with other ceramics β-TCP has a rapid and uncontrolled rate of degradation. In the current study β-TCP granules were mineral coated with the aim of influencing the dissolution rate of β-TCP, and also to use the coating as ...
