In this work, we report a study of long-chain zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (pSBMA) surfaces grafted via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) for their resistance to bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. Previously, we demonstrated that p(SBMA) is highly resistant to nonspe

Biofouling is one of the major impediments in the use of titanium in sea-water cooled condensers of power plants, which is otherwise an excellent material with respect to corrosion resistance. Raman microscopic experiments were carried out on biofilms grown on titanium surfaces to find out the chemi
## Abstract Biofilm formed by __Staphylococcus epidermidis__ (__S. epidermidis__) is a common cause of periprosthetic infection. Recently, we have discovered that berberine is bacteriostatic for __S. epidermidis__. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of berberine on __S. epid
