“…For example, Wang et al [28] have applied aerosol injection in plasma and successfully prepared silver ions release antibacterial surfaces with aerosol atomization of an AgNO 3 solution and addition of an organosilicon monomer (hexamethyldisiloxane) in a single-step process. The fabricated coatings delivered antibacterial efficiency against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Grampositive Staphylococcus aureus with tolerable cytotoxicity for murine fibroblasts.…”

Modern society is suffering from many infectious microbes. Developing antimicrobial surfaces for biomedical decontamination and sterilization is one of the strategic solutions to mitigate the spread of infectious pathogens. Here, we outline the paradigm of plasmas for biomedical decontamination by presenting approaches of plasmaengineered antimicrobial surfaces and novel plasma-active antimicrobial surfaces. Low-temperature plasma can not only be used as a material fabrication tool for antimicrobial surface engineering but also be used directly for microbial inactivation by specially designed plasma-active surfaces that can effectively destroy microorganisms through exposure to plasma. The role of plasmas in the two different kinds of antimicrobial surfaces is discussed along with their associated advantages and disadvantages. Future research directions, challenges, and opportunities in both plasma-based antimicrobial surfaces are also critically evaluated. This analysis contributes to the development of next-generation antimicrobial surfaces for future bio-safety.

Polylactic acid (PLA) possesses many advantages, especially biodegradability, and has subsequently been used in many regions. Unfortunately, its disadvantages, including its brittleness, become an obstacle to its application and constrain its development. In this study, Polystyrene‐b‐poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐butene)‐b‐polystyrene (SEBS) is used as the toughener and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP‐g‐MA) is used as the compatibilizer. The melt‐blending technique for polymers is employed to modify PLA in order to produce PLA/SEBS membranes. For PLA/SEBS membranes, the optimal matrices are made of a blending ratio of PLA/SEBS/PP‐g‐MA being 57/40/3. Next, polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride (PHGH) is combined with the optimal membranes to form PLA/SEBS antibacterial membranes, the crystallinity, thermal properties, and antibacterial properties of which are examined to determine the effect of the PHGH content. The test results show that an appropriate content of SEBS or PHGH has a positive influence on PLA/SEBS antibacterial membranes. Moreover, the antibacterial membranes exhibit greater antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli (E. coli) than is gained with an increase in the PHGH content.

“…This approach has shown to be appropriate to deposit and embed various bioactive agents dissolved in the water aerosol such as enzymes, [12] proteins, [13][14][15][16] antibiotics, [17,18] and ionic silver. [19] However, these depositions have exclusively been performed using gaseous or vaporous precursors such as acetylene, ethylene, and hexamethyldisiloxane. [10] Unhappily, the coatings result nondegradable, meaning that the polymeric matrix will act as a diffusion barrier to determine the release.…”

Aerosol-assisted open-air plasma allows the direct deposition of composite coatings with embedded bioactive agents. However, the deposition of biodegradable coatings for controlled drug release application remains challenging. In this study, an innovative precursor injection strategy is used to entrap tracers in coatings deposited from various acrylate-based precursors: Acrylic acid (AA), methacrylic anhydride (MA), and 1,4-butanediol diacrylate (BDDA). Water immersion tests show dramatically different release kinetics ranging from over minutes to weeks and months for AA, MA, and BDDA, respectively. These different behaviors are correlated to the crosslinking degree and the hydrolysis rates of the crosslinking functions. This original approach allows controlled release of tracers entrapped in biodegradable acrylate-based coatings and provides new insights for drug-release application.
