Abstract:In the last decade, biocidal materials have been extensively researched and applied as a coating for various touchscreen devices, in medicine and civil engineering. This research addresses important practical issues in application of surface- modified biocidal glass in water, and inspects optical properties in the spectral range between 350 nm and 500 nm, the range important for bacteria fluorescence detection. Testing of biocidal efficiency has been conducted in an environment rich with microorganisms and alg… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
