An antibacterial coated polymer prevents biofilm formation and implant-associated infection

Abstract To prevent infections associated with medical implants, various antimicrobial silver-coated implant materials have been developed. However, these materials do not always provide consistent antibacterial effects in vivo despite having dramatic antibacterial effects in vitro, probably because...

description Abstract To prevent infections associated with medical implants, various antimicrobial silver-coated implant materials have been developed.
