A light-guiding urinary catheter for the inhibition of proteus mirabilis biofilm formation

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Jonathan T. Butement from the Harvard Medical School, United States University of Johannesburg have published the research: A light-guiding urinary catheter for the inhibition of Proteus mirabilis biofilm formation, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors propose the use of a light-guiding catheter (LGC) to deliver antimicrobial blue light to catheter surfaces in situ thus inhibiting the formation of biofilms. The study reports statistically significant, similar, or higher levels of inhibition for the same fluence. It should be noted that the study examines blue light mediated inhibition of biofilm formation rather than . . .
