Abstract EN
An Ag:HAp (xAg = 0.5) powder was deposited by thermal evaporation technique as coating on a silicon substrate previously covered with a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) layer.
The Ag:HAp-PDMS layers were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR).
By infrared spectroscopy analysis, the phase composition of the Ag:HAp-PDMS layers was investigated.
The antimicrobial activity of Ag:HAp-PDMS layers was tested against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans microbial strains.
The microbial activity decreases significantly for the surveyed time intervals on Ag:HAp-PDMS layers.
