Contact-active antibacterial polyethylene foils via atmospheric air plasma induced polymerisation of quaternary ammonium salts. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2019; 186:110679.

Abstract
Polyethylene (PE) foils were modified with potent contact-active antibacterial quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) by an atmospheric air plasma activation step, followed by graft-polymerisation of vinylbenzyltrimethylammonium chloride (VBTAC) monomers. The presented approach uses a cost efficient air plasma activation and subsequent radical polymerisation in highly concentrated aqueous monomer solutions to generate efficient antibacterial materials. The obtained contact-active poly-VBTAC modified PE foils feature a homogeneous and 300 nm thick polymer layer with a high charge density of approximately 1016 N+/cm2. The antibacterial properties were evaluated against Gram-negative (P. aeruginosa, E. coli) and Gram-positive (S. aureus, S. epidermidis) bacteria. The materials showed strong antibacterial activity by eradicating all the inoculated bacteria with bacterial challenges of 104 to 105 CFU/cm2 and good reductions even at maximum challenge (108 CFU/cm2). We have confirmed contact-activity by an agar diffusion assay. The obtained materials are therefore highly attractive for applications, for example, in packaging and are a contribution to an ecomic and green antimicrobial management without release of biocides to the environment.

Abstract
This paper reports about the initial interaction of bacteria with anodically oxidized Ti6Al4V for the use as dental implant abutment surfaces. Ti6Al4V samples are anodically oxidized in hydrofluoric acid using different voltages. The resulting nanotopographies are characterized by atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and contact angle measurements. The topographies reach from micro-porous structures with small nanoporosities on top to fully hexagonally aligned nanotubes. For initial bacterial adhesion tests, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus are used. Samples are incubated for 2 h and afterwards non-adherent cells are washed off. The results of live/dead staining and cell counts are presented. Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains show different behavior in respect to total number of initially adherent cells on different micro/nanotopographies. The observed reduction of adhered microorganisms is mainly based on underlying microporous topographies.

Abstract
The attachment of single-celled organisms, namely bacteria and fungi, to abiotic surfaces is of great interest to both the scientific and medical communities. This is because the interaction of such cells has important implications in a range of areas, including biofilm formation, biofouling, antimicrobial surface technologies, and bio-nanotechnologies, as well as infection development, control, and mitigation. While central to many biological phenomena, the factors which govern microbial surface attachment are still not fully understood. This lack of understanding is a direct consequence of the complex nature of cell-surface interactions, which can involve both specific and non-specific interactions. For applications involving micro- and nano-structured surfaces, developing an understanding of such phenomenon is further complicated by the diverse nature of surface architectures, surface chemistry, variation in cellular physiology, and the intended technological output. These factors are extremely important to understand in the emerging field of antibacterial nanostructured surfaces. The aim of this perspective is to re-frame the discussion surrounding the mechanism of nanostructured-microbial surface interactions. Broadly, the article reviews our current understanding of these phenomena, while highlighting the knowledge gaps surrounding the adhesive forces which govern bacterial-nanostructure interactions and the role of cell membrane rigidity in modulating surface activity. The roles of surface charge, cell rigidity, and cell-surface adhesion force in bacterial-surface adsorption are discussed in detail. Presently, most studies have overlooked these areas, which has left many questions unanswered. Further, this perspective article highlights the numerous experimental issues and misinterpretations which surround current studies of antibacterial nanostructured surfaces.

Abstract
Bacterial-infections are mostly due to bacteria in their biofilm-mode of growth. Nanotechnology-based antimicrobials possess excellent potential in biofilm-infection control, overcoming the biological barriers of biofilms.
