Various strategies of silicone surface modification.

Surface modification Molecules Mechanism Ref
Drug doxycycline inhibit MRSA and Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation and bacterial adhesion (83)
Metal and metal oxides NPs Ag Inhibit the biofilm formation for E. coli, S. aureus, Enterococcus, coagulase-negative staphylococci and P. aeruginosa (84)
antifungal activity of C. albican and biocompatible with human dermal fibroblasts (85)
Zn rapid bactericidal function on E. coli and satisfactory biosecurity (86)
Cu rapid bactericidal function on E. coli and satisfactory biosecurity (86)
ZnO bactericidal properties both on gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria (76, 87)
TiO2 antibacterial activity against E. coli, photoreactivity and cell adhesiveness (88)
CuO biocompatibility, antibacterial on E. coli, S. aureus and anticorrosive properties (89)
GO GO stronger antibacterial activity against E. coli with thin film attributed by oxidative stress mechanism (90, 91)
Glyco-combined nanoparticles CMC, CMD, AA long-lasting stability, hydrophilicity of PDMS, reduced the adsorption of negatively charged BSA and egg albumin, increased positively charged bacteriolysis (92)
CMC, CHI prevent bacteria from adhering and loading and releasing antibacterial agents and anti-inflammatory agents (93)
HA-MKM bacterial growth inhibition, excellent antifouling and antibacterial properties (94)
PLL, HA Reduce inflammation and capsule formation (95)
Others PMPC prevent non-specific protein adsorption and fibroblast adhesion to silicone surfaces (96)
ADM alleviate the acute in vitro foreign body response of breast fibroblasts (97)
ECM reduce the inflammation of the implant-driven foreign body response (98)
