Fig. 4. Antibacterial properties of POEGMA188-based nanocomposite coatings against E. coli and S. aureus. The Petri plates after incubation for 24 hours at 4 °C (left panel) and 37 °C (right panel) with POEGMA188-based nanocomposite coatings fabricated for 16 hours of polymerization (POEGMA) and with incorporated AgNPs obtained after 15 min of immersion at 5 mM AgNO3 solution followed by reduction in 0.2 M NaBH4 solution for 12 h (POEGMA & AgNPs).
