“…Related work by Lischer et al on Ag‐burst release systems suggests that at very low concentrations of potentially both metals within the same polymer there is a potential for reducing both gram negative and gram positive bacterial colonisation without compromising cytocompatibility. In order to extend the antimicrobial effect of the described zinc containing films to several days and weeks an accompanying paper describes the addition of cytocompatible top‐layers that act as a barrier allowing for control over the release rate of zinc from a multilayer structure 21…”

“…The thermal decomposition of zinc acetylacetonate hydrate [Zn(C 5 H 7 O 2 ) 2 .xH 2 O] has been found to yield metallic zinc and zinc oxide [30,58,59]. The ZnO can get incorporated into polymer surface as metallic zinc or zinc oxide.…”

“…Surface modification techniques such as block co-polymerization [26,27], covalent grafting of hydrophilic groups to surfaces [28], nanoparticle functionalization [29,30], atom transfer radical polymerization [31], Radio Frequency plasma deposition and modifications of surfaces have been used to fabricate surfaces showing antifouling properties. Kim et al modified nanofiltration thin film composite membranes to be more hydrophilic by a treatment with NH 3 plasma.…”

“…OWS has been described previously and allows for the determination of both refractive index and thickness changes occurring as the metal ions leach from the nanocomposite (48,77). The change in optical parameters of the films can be correlated to a measured decrease in zinc within the film by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) data (48,78).

“…To tailor the release rate of the metal from the polymer matrix, a secondary top layer that acts to reduce the diffusion rate of the metal out of the polymer has been suggested (78). After that time, no further metal release is observed, even though in both cases it was shown that the metal has not fully leached from the film.…”
