Table 4.

Fold improvement calculated from fluorescent microscopy image analysis of S. mutans and S. epidermidis bacteria on titanium foil and implant surfaces with TiBP-Spacer5-AMP bio-coating, compared to bare, uncoated control surfaces. There is in resistance to bacteria as a result of the TiBP-Spacer5-AMP bio-coating on foil and implant surfaces.

Fold improvement compared to uncoated Ti surfaces
	Foils	Implants
TiBP-Spacer5-AMP against S. mutans	6	9
TiBP-Spacer5-AMP against S. epidermidis	33	48
