Development of a current controlled stimulation setup for investigating the effect of electrical currents on implant infections caused by biofilms
Introduction: Biofilms are bacterial communities that transform into a state enclosed in an extracellular polymeric substance, which makes them less susceptible to antibiotics. Those bacterial formations often develop on metal implants and cause chronic infections. Due to the severely reduced impact...
