Influence of Surface Properties on the Adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis to Acrylic and Silicone
The aim of the present study was to compare the ability of eight Staphylococcus epidermidis strains to adhere to acrylic and silicone, two polymers normally used in medical devices manufacture. Furthermore, it was tried to correlate that with the surface properties of substrata and cells. Therefore,...
