Abstract:Antimicrobial coatings provide protection against microbes
colonization
on surfaces. This can prevent the stabilization and proliferation
of microorganisms. The ever-increasing levels of microbial resistance
to antimicrobials are urging the development of alternative types
of compounds that are potent across broad spectra of microorganisms
and target different pathways. This will help to slow down the development
of resistance and ideally halt it. The development of composite antimicrobial
coatings (CACs) that… Show more
