Readily synthesized and highly antibacterial polyhexamethylene guanidine molybdate
(PHMG-MoO 4) can be used as a filler to greatly improve the resistance of epoxy coating to …

Some very effective antimicrobial coatings exploit copper or cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) as the
active agent. The aim of this study is to determine which species is the active antimicrobial …

Antimicrobial coatings can be used to reduce the transmission of infectious agents that are
spread by contact. An effective coating should kill microbes in the time between users, which …

Pathogenic bacteria can remain viable on fabrics for several days and therefore are a
source of infection. Antimicrobial fabrics are a potential method of reducing such infections …

Antimicrobial coatings have a finite lifetime because of wear, depletion of the active
ingredient, or surface contamination that produces a barrier between the pathogen and the …

The synthesis of Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) through the reduction of copper hydroxide using
ascorbic acid and then Cu2O NPs modified with triacetoxy (vinyl) silane (TVAS)(m-Cu2O) by …

Antibacterial efficacy of chitosan-capped copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO–CS NPs) was
evaluated against the Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli) and Gram-positive bacteria (B …

Nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit superior antimicrobial activity because of their distinct structural
morphology (particle size and shape). However, the antimicrobial performance of most NPs …

Pathogenic bacteria can remain viable on fabrics for several days and therefore are a
source of infection. Antimicrobial fabrics are a potential method of reducing such infections …
