Stress Response of Aspergillus niger Spores to Copper Surfaces and the Implications for Antifungal Surface Functionalization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 10, May 19, 2025.
This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy

Quantitative Assessment of Microbial Transmission onto Environmental Surfaces Using Thermoresponsive Gelatin Hydrogels as a Finger Mimetic under In Situ‐Mimicking Conditions

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 6, March 3, 2025.
A novel method for the quantitative assessment of pathogenic bacteria transmission is established using thermoresponsive gelatin as a finger‐mimetic. The HydroTouch test reveals that methicillin‐resistant S. aureus is highly transferable onto stainless steel compared to E. coli and P. aeruginosa.
