Abstract:Infectious microbial diseases can easily be transferred from person to person in the air or via high contact surfaces. As a result, researchers must aspire to create materials that can be implemented in surface contact applications to disrupt pathogen growth and transmission. Silver (Ag) is known to possess antimicrobial activity and has been used in the past in various pharmaceutical applications. Herein, we examine the antimicrobial properties of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers coated with different conce… Show more
