Anti-microbial coatings on Urinary Catheter(s) (UCs) to either kill the pathogens or inhibit biofilm formation. Right: Contact killing (Enzymes, Anti-microbial peptides (AMPs), Bacteriophages). Left: Release killing (Antibiotic, Nanoparticles (NPs), Nitric Oxide (NO)). Bottom: Quorum Sensing (QS) disruptors to prevent biofilm formation: a) QS mechanism b) Quorum Quenching c) QS inhibitor.
