A novel approach to create an antibacterial surface using titanium dioxide and a combination of dip-pen nanolithography and soft lithography

Abstract Soft lithography and Dip-Pen Nanolithography (DPN) are techniques that have been used to modify the surface of biomaterials. Modified surfaces play a role in reducing bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. Also, titanium dioxide has been reported as an antibacterial substance due to its...
