Scientists Develop Bacteria-Resistant Substrates That Promote Cell Growth

  • Scientists at Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed anodic porous alumina (APA) surfaces with extraordinary antibacterial properties that also promote cell growth.
  • The nanostructured surfaces disrupt bacterial cell walls, preventing bacterial growth while enabling the safe proliferation of mammalian cells.
  • The APA surfaces offer a safer alternative to antibiotics in cell culture and regenerative medicine applications, reducing the risk of antibiotic resistance.
  • The ease of manufacture and potential for widespread adoption make these surfaces valuable for creating sterile environments in laboratories and hospitals.
