Silver coating of urinary catheters prevents adherence and growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

H Liedberg1, T Lundeberg.   

Abstract

Discs of urinary catheter material were exposed to the flow of artificial urine containing cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Within 10 h an adherent biofilm composed of the bacteria and of their exopolysaccharide products had developed on the uncoated catheter material. On the silver-coated catheter material no biofilm of Pseudomonas aeruginosa had developed.
