Customized biofilm device for antibiofilm and antibacterial screening of newly developed nanostructured silver and zinc coatings

Abstract Background Bacterial colonisation on implantable device surfaces is estimated to cause more than half of healthcare-associated infections. The application of inorganic coatings onto implantable devices limits/prevents microbial contaminations. However, reliable and high-throughput depositio...
