Engineering of self-disinfecting surfaces to constrain the spread of SARS-CoV-2 is a
challenging task for the scientific community, because the human coronavirus spreads …

The whole world is struggling with current coronavirus pandemic that shows urgent need to
develop novel technologies, medical innovations or innovative materials for controlling …

Bacterial infection and corrosion are two of the most common causes of the failure for the
use of biomedical metallic implants. In this paper, we developed a facile two-step approach …

Nanomaterials like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are established photocatalysts that are
well-known in a variety of functions. They can be applied in paint and coating as pigment …

The influence of copper derived TiO2 surfaces (nCu–nT-TiO2) on the death of nosocomial
Staphylococcus aureus (Sa) and Escherichia coli (Ec), was investigated. TiO2 nanotube (nT …

SARS-CoV-2 is the causative agent of COVID-19, which is a global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2
is transmitted rapidly via contaminated surfaces and aerosols, emphasizing the importance …

Titanium and its alloys have superb biocompatibility, low elastic modulus, and favorable
corrosion resistance. These exceptional properties lead to its wide use as a medical implant …

A photocatalytic sol of TiO 2 nanoparticles has been used for creating self-cleaning
antimicrobial flat and porous glass surfaces. The substrates were irradiated to study their …

A sol− gel chemistry approach was used to fabricate nanoparticles of TiO2 in its anatase
form. The particle size is shown to be sensitive to the use of HClO4 or HNO3 as acid catalyst …

Infection is the most common factor that leads to dental titanium implant failure. Antibacterial
implant surfaces based on nano-scale modifications of the titanium appear as an attractive …
