Journal Article
Varghese, S., ElFakhri, S., Sheel, D., Sheel, P., Bolton, F., & Foster, H. (2013). Antimicrobial activity of novel nanostructured Cu-SiO2 coatings prepared by chemical vapour deposition against hospital related pathogens. AMB Express, 2(53), https://doi.org/10.1186/2191-0855-3-53

There is increasing recognition that the healthcare environment acts as an important reservoir for transmission of healthcare acquired infections (HCAI). One method of reducing environmental contamination would be use of antimicrobial materials. The...
