Resistance of Oil‐Infused PDMS with Different Macroporosities Against Bacterial Attachment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In this study, a series of environmentally benign, nonfluorinated liquid paraffin‐infused porous PDMS networks with varying porosities is created. By introducing different homogenous and heterogenous bulk structures and varying interfacial roughness by sugar and salt templating, the role of porosity and oil availability on the resistance against ...

A Modular, Lego‐Like Microfluidic Platform for Multimodal Analysis of Biofilm Formation and Antimicrobial Response

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A modular microfluidic platform with integrated electrodes enables real‐time, label‐free monitoring of biofilm formation, treatment, and regrowth. The system evaluates both antibiotic response and antimicrobial coating efficacy on P. aeruginosa. Its LEGO‐like design supports dynamic migration studies, offering a clinically relevant, scalable tool for ...

Copper Stress Response of Antibiotic‐Resistant and Copper‐Tolerant Enterococcus faecium and the Antibacterial Efficacy of Functionalized Copper Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study examines how different laser‐patterned copper and brass surfaces, including copper coatings, affect the survival of vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus faecium. Using microscopy and genome analysis, the results show that copper tolerance varies between strains and can increase after vancomycin exposure.

Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings Based on Bioglass, Vitamin D3, and Melittin Deposited via MAPLE for Enhanced Osseointegration, Antibacterial Activity, and Corrosion Resistance of Titanium Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of
