Νanomaterial-Loaded Polymer Coating Prevents the In Vitro Growth of <i>Candida albicans</i> Biofilms on Silicone Biomaterials

Νanomaterial-Loaded Polymer Coating Prevents the In Vitro Growth of <i>Candida albicans</i> Biofilms on Silicone Biomaterials

Early failure of silicone voice prostheses resulting from fungal colonization and biofilm formation poses a major concern in modern ear nose throat surgery. Therefore, developing new infection prevention techniques to prolong those implants’ survivorship is crucial. We designed an in vitro laborator...
