In-vitro antibacterial and anti-encrustation performance of silver-polytetrafluoroethylene nanocomposite coated urinary catheters

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: L. Wang from the School of Science and Engineering, University of Dundee, Dundee, UK have published the paper: In-vitro antibacterial and anti-encrustation performance of silver-polytetrafluoroethylene nanocomposite coated urinary catheters, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: Two in-vitro bladder models were designed to evaluate the ability of whole coated catheters to: impede bacterial migration along external surfaces of the catheter; and_(2) inhibit encrustation.
  • future: The integrity of the coating on the balloon during inflation/deflation has not been determined to date and will be investigated in future studies.
