Antifouling and antimicrobial biomaterials: an overview [PDF]
APMIS, 2017 The use of implantable medical devices is a common and indispensable part of medical care for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. However, as side effect, the implant of medical devices quite often leads to the occurrence of difficult‐to‐treat infections, as a consequence of the colonization of their abiotic surfaces by biofilm‐growing ...
