The vapor phase deposition of polymeric antimicrobial coatings is reported. Initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD), a solventless low-temperature process, is used to form thin films of polymers on fragile substrates. For this work, finished nylon fabric is coated by iCVD with no affect on the co

## Abstract An antibiotic eluting catheter has been designed to suppress bacteriuria associated with indwelling catheter drainage of the bladder. A coating of hydrophilicgel plastic, Hydron, is used as the vehicle from which the antimicrobial agent is locally released. In 15 dogs, indwelling Hydron
## Abstract An advanced method with an initiator pretreatment was developed for the coating of nylon/cotton fabrics with the hydantoin‐containing monomer 3‐allyl‐5,5‐dimethylhydantoin and two water‐soluble crosslinkers __N,N__′‐methylene bisacrylamide and poly(ethylene glycol) 200 diacrylate. The f
Implant-related infections are often devastating situations in orthopaedic trauma surgery particularly if multiresistant bacteria are involved. Protection of the implant surface by an antimicrobial coating exhibiting activity against multiresistant bacterial strains is of high interest. Aim of this
Evaluation of interfacial toughness of sub-micron-thickness layers deposited on a ductile substrate is a challenging task which has motivated different experimental approaches. Fragmentation testing was used in the present study as a means of interface characterization of a silicon-nitride-coated po
