SEM images of S. aureus on (b) control surface and (c–i) various experimental surfaces. Damaged bacterial cells can be identified by an irregular morphology (c–i) compared with healthy cells in typical coccoid morphology (b). (f) Nanopillars with interspace of 100 nm and (g) nanopillars with interspace of 170 nm demonstrated the most efficient bactericidal properties. Reprinted from Modaresifar et al.
