Development and In Vitro Validation of Antibacterial Paints Containing Chloroxylenol and Terpineol

Abstract: The establishment of self-disinfecting surfaces is an important method to avoid surface contamination. Recently, paints with antimicrobial properties have been developed to be applied on different surfaces, avoiding contamination with pathogens. In this work, self-disinfecting paints containing Chloroxylenol (CLX), Terpineol (TRP), and a mixture of both substances were developed. The goal was to evaluate and validate these paints using international standards for eventual commercialization and application in s… Show more

“…16 So far, various organic and inorganic substances have been used as antimicrobial agents in waterborne coatings but suffer from various drawbacks eliciting search for alternatives. 6 For example, terpineol, chloroxylenol, 17 and many antibiotics have been used as antimicrobial agents in coatings; however, owing to the evolution of antimicrobial drug resistance, the incorporation of antibiotics into coatings is fading out. 18 Fungicides are also commonly used in waterborne coatings to prevent microbial attack but are not appropriate for indoor applications.…”
