An in vitro study on the inhibition and ultrastructural alterations of Candida albicans biofilm by zinc oxide nanowires in a PMMA matrix

An in vitro study on the inhibition and ultrastructural alterations of Candida albicans biofilm by zinc oxide nanowires in a PMMA matrix

Objectives: The purpose of this study was (i) to investigate whether nanocomposite poly(methyl-methacrylate)-zinc oxide nanowires (PMMA-ZnO-NWs) have C. albicans antibiofilm activity; (ii) to evaluate the interaction between components of the nanocomposites based on PMMA-ZnO-NWs by Raman spectroscop...
