Antibacterial effects of nanopillar surfaces are mediated by cell impedance, penetration and induction of oxidative stress

Some insects, such as dragonflies, have evolved nanoprotrusions on their wings that rupture bacteria on contact. This has inspired the design of antibacterial implant surfaces with insect-wing mimetic nanopillars made of synthetic materials. Here, we characterise the physiological and morphological...
