Antimicrobial effects of positively charged surfaces on adhering Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria

The infection of biomaterials is determined by an interplay of adhesion and surface growth of the infecting organisms. In this study, the antimicrobial effects on adhering bacteria of a positively charged poly(methacrylate) surface (ξ potential +12 mV) were compared with those of negatively charged...
