INFLUENCE OF POLYMER SURFACES ON BACTERIAL BIOFILM FORMATION
High throughput materials discovery screens have revealed polymers that reduce bacterial surface colonization which have progressed to ongoing clinical trials [Hook et al. Nature Biotech 2012]. These novel poly(meth)acrylate coatings reduced biofilm formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcu...
