Patterned coatings based on Langmuir- Blodgett films for regulated fixation of Escherichia coli

Abstract

Formation of patterned coatings suitable for Escherichia coli directed fixation on a solid surface, has been performed by the microcontact printing method in combination with Langmuir-Blodgett technology. The possibility has been shown for azithromycin introduction into Langmuir films based on a styrene-acrylic acid block copolymer. Adhesion of Escherichia coli cells to various types of surfaces has been investigated by atomic force microscopy. It has been shown that the antibiotic introduced into a polymer film, affects bacterial cells.
