Dear all,
I am looking for publications dealing with the long-term stability of antibacterial coatings. I need to know if the coating still works even after months or years. The latest term I found was 56 days which is not sufficient long for my research.
Thank you in advance.
Dear Dr. Pavel Mareš,
antimicrobial coatings are able to prevent germ growth for many applications in applications well beyond healthcare. These are durable coatings that can continue to perform even through regular, repeated water exposure and cleaning.
Using silver ions as a permanent material component prevents strong germ growth between cleaning cycles and guarantees low bacterial attack for many years. Successfully fighting germ growth consists of three action mechanisms: 1) blockage of primary cell metabolism; 2) stoppage of cellular respiration; and 3) prevention of cell division. These three mechanisms prevent the growth of undesired microorganisms on surfaces. The substance combination is activated by moisture and develops its antimicrobial effect. This means the surface is kept clean.

I have been using silver cutlery for 30 years. They are thinner but still kill bacteria. Copper products in hospitals have good bacterial protection for many years. While our cotton material with copper particles kills bacteria for 4 years. We will continue this research.
