The antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of copper material

The biofilm-forming bacteria are asocciated in communities of organisms which are strongly attached to the biotic and abiotic surfaces. They cause infectious diseases among the population and are the source of contamination of medical devices or surfaces within hospitals or in different areas of industrial production. Bacterial biofilm can be formed in various materials such as glass, stainless steel, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to search materials that prevent the formation of biofilm on the surface of them.
