We aimed to assemble research papers on the preparation of new materials, antimicrobial testing using different pathogens (bacteria, fungi, and viruses), and the relationship between the coating nanostructure and its reactivity towards the studied pathogen(s). We believe that a good antimicrobial coating should by characterized by (i) a fast activity towards the pathogen, (ii) sustainable activity based on the stability of the coating, and (iii) the lowest possible toxicity for humans and reduced risks for the environment. Striking a compromise between these different challenges is difficult and requires more research.Research & information: generalbicsscTechnology: general issuesbicsscactive packagingchitosanmethylcellulosenatamycinantimicrobial actionquaternary ammonium groupsacrylic acidglycidyl methacrylatecrosslinking reactioncoatingedible filmsedible coatingsantimicrobial agentsfresh fishspoilageshelf-lifeblack anther diseaseorchid cut flowersilver nanoparticlesantifouling efficacyflow-throughtriangular boxAmphibalanus amphitritecuprous oxidedynamic agingrepellant activityraft experimentbioassaybiofouling of ships' hullpolypropylenehernia meshesantibacterialdrug releasepolydopamineantimicrobialcitric acidcross-linkedcold plasmaantimicrobial activitybrilliant greencrystal violetdemethylationligninpolyurethane coatingstriphenylmethane dyes3D printingcathetersdialysisextrusioninfectionsmanufacturinginfectioncoatingssilvernanomaterialsplasma depositiontitanium-based thin filmscoppermagnetron sputteringsuper-elastic coatingsE. coli inactivationResearch & information: generalTechnology: general issuesRtimi Samiedt1324197Rtimi SamiothBOOK9910557408603321Advances in Antimicrobial Coatings3036026UNINA
