Electrochemical scaffold generates localized, low concentration of hydrogen peroxide that inhibits bacterial pathogens and biofilms

We hypothesized that low concentrations of H(2)O(2) could be generated through the electrochemical conversion of oxygen by applying an electric potential to a conductive scaffold and produce a low, but constant, concentration of H(2)O(2) that would be sufficient to destroy biofilms. To test our hypo...
