Durability Assessment of a Plasma-Polymerized Coating with Anti-Biofilm Activity against <i>L. monocytogenes</i> Subjected to Repeated Sanitization

Biofilm formation on food-contact surfaces is a matter of major concern causing food safety and spoilage issues to this sector. The aim of this study was to assess the durability of the anti-biofilm capacity of a plasma-polymerized coating composed of a base coating of (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane...
