Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on zwitterionic surfaces.
TL;DR: Qualitative images showed that p(SBMA) dramatically reduced biofilm formation of S. epidermidis and P. aeruginosa as compared to glass as well as how surface grafting methods will affect the long-term biological performance of the surface coatings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zwitterionic carboxybetaine polymer surfaces and their resistance to long-term biofilm formation
TL;DR: The ability of pCBMA coatings to resist non-specific protein adsorption and significantly retard bacterial biofilm formation makes it a very promising material for biomedical and industrial applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of silver‐coated fabric to prevent bacterial colonization and subsequent device‐based biofilm formation
TL;DR: Kinetic analysis of batch suspended cell cultures of Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE), at various growth-limiting nutrient concentrations, in the absence of any fabric, indicated a maximum culture growth rate constant micro(max).
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of fouling biofilm formation.
TL;DR: Fouling biofilm development was monitored in a completely mixed tubular recycle reactor and the fluid frictional resistance increased after filamentous bacteria became a permanent part of the biofilm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering biomaterials to integrate and heal: The biocompatibility paradigm shifts
TL;DR: This article focuses on one of the major failure routes of implanted medical devices, the foreign body reaction (FBR), and discusses in detail emerging strategies to inhibit the FBR by engineering biomaterials that elicit more biologically pertinent responses.
