Analysis of killing of growing cells and dormant and germinated spores of Bacillus species by black silicon nanopillars

Black silicon (bSi) wafers with a high density of high-aspect ratio nanopillars have recently been suggested to have mechanical bactericidal activity. However, it remains unclear whether bSi with the nanopillars can kill only growing bacterial cells or also dormant spores that are harder to kill. We...
