Modelling and Prediction of Bacterial Attachment to Polymers (2013)
Journal Article

Infection by pathogenic bacteria on implanted and indwelling medical devices during surgery causes large morbidity and mortality worldwide. Attempts to ameliorate this important medical issue have included development of antimicrobial surfaces on mat... Read More about Modelling and Prediction of Bacterial Attachment to Polymers.

Discovery of novel materials with broad resistance to bacterial attachment using combinatorial polymer microarrays (2013)
Journal Article

A new class of bacteria-attachment-resistant materials is discovered using a multi-generation polymer microarray methodology that reduces bacterial attachment by up to 99.3% compared with a leading commercially available silver hydrogel anti-bacteria...

High throughput discovery of thermo-responsive materials using water contact angle measurements and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (2013)
Journal Article

Switchable materials that alter their chemical or physical properties in response to external stimuli allow for temporal control of material-biological interactions, thus, are of interest for many biomaterial applications. Our interest is the discove... Read More about High throughput discovery of thermo-responsive materials using water contact angle measurements and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry.
