## Abstract Biofilm formation on orthodontic adhesives is a serious clinical problem, as it leads to enamel demineralization around fixed orthodontic appliances, often leaving white spot lesions after their removal. The aim of this work was to determine the influence of surface physicoβchemical pro
## Abstract The production of a microfluidic device for microbial culture has necessitated the development of techniques for the prevention of bacterial adhesion to a range of polymeric substrates including fluoropolymers such as fluorinated ethylene polypropylene, and polyolefins such as lowβdensi
