Carbon-Infiltrated Carbon Nanotube Topography Reduces the Growth of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Biofilms

Orthopedic implant-associated infections are a growing problem. These infections are often associated with bacterial biofilms, such as those formed by <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>. Nanotextured surfaces can reduce or prevent the development of bacterial biofilms and could help reduce inf...
