DOI: 10.1021/acs.biomac.8b01378
Abstract: Bacterial infection is a severe problem especially when associated with biomedical applications. This study effectively demonstrates that poly-N-isopropylmethacrylamide based microgel coatings prevent bacterial adhesion. The coating preparation via a spraying approach proved to be simple… read more here.
