Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces: Increasing Antibacterial Efficiency of Cu Surfaces by targeted Surface Functionalization via Ultrashort Pulsed Direct Laser Interference Patterning (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 5/2021)
Source abstract
Abstract
In article 2001656, Daniel W. Müller and co-workers were able to significally enhance antibacterial efficiency of Cu surfaces against Escherichia coli by ultrashort pulsed laser interference patterning in the scale of single bacteria cells. Improved bacterial killing could mainly be attributed to increased Cu sensitivity due to altered contact situations involving both available contact area and surface wettability.
