Enhanced Antibacterial Activity of Poly (dimethylsiloxane) Membranes by Incorporating SiO<sub>2</sub> Microspheres Generated Silver Nanoparticles
The nonspecific adsorption of proteins and bacteria on the surface of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) had been a serious concern in a wide range of applications, such as medical devices. In order to improve the anti-adhesive and antibacterial capability, bare silver nanoparticles (AgNPs, ~15 nm) were ge...
