1. Antibacterial Strategies for Titanium Biomaterials
Abstract : Titanium and titanium based alloys are widely used in dentistry and orthopedics to replace hard tissue and to mend broken bones. It has become a material of choice due to its low density, high strength, good biocompatibility and its capacity to integrate closely with the bone. READ MORE

2. The creation of antibacterial fibres through physical adsorption of polyelectrolytes
Abstract : Contact-active antibacterial surfaces with irreversibly attached antibacterial com-pounds are a sustainable alternative to traditional biocides. No chemicals are released into nature and the antibacterial mechanism reduces the risk of the evolution of re-sistant bacteria. READ MORE

3. Bioactive Surgical Implant Coatings with Optional Antibacterial Function
Abstract : Device associated infections are a growing problem in the field of orthopaedics and dentistry. Bacteria adhering to implant surfaces and subsequent biofilm formation are challenging to treat with systemic administered antibiotics. READ MORE

4. Bioactive Coatings and Antibacterial Approaches for Titanium Medical Implants
Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to characterize and manufacture coatings and surfaces with antibacterial properties and retained or enhanced bioactivity and biocompatibility. The aim was also to study the optimal composition and parameters of mixtures for debridement of bacterial biofilms on titanium surfaces. READ MORE

5. Development of Non-leaching Antibacterial Approaches on Cellulose-based Substrates and Their Mechanisms
Abstract : The layer-by-layer (LbL) technique is becoming a powerful tool that has been applied in many surface coatings and functionalizations in recent years. It has many advantages including a fast and mild process, the flexibility of choice of substrate, and the easiness to scale-up. READ MORE
