AbstractEEC-0121881 Costerton该项目由蒙大拿州立大学生物膜工程ERC（CBE）和华盛顿大学工程生物材料ERC（UWEB）合作开展。目的是研究通过从专门制备的塑料涂层中控制释放抗生素来预防和破坏医疗器械上生物膜定植的潜力。抗生素或其他生物膜破坏剂的受控释放速率和动力学将在CBE的生物膜行为实验室（BBL）和前体细胞成像设施中进行研究。生物材料和涂层的研究将在UWEB进行。研究生和本科生将交换。

AbstractEEC-0121881CostertonThis project is in partnership between the ERC for Biofilm Engineering (CBE) at Montana State University and ERC for Engineered Biomaterials (UWEB) at the University of Washington. The objective is to investigate the potential of prevention and destruction of biofilm colonization on medical devices by controlled release of an antibiotic from a specially prepared plastic coating. The rate and kinetics of controlled release of the antibiotic or other biofilm destroying agent will be investigated in CBE's Biofilm Behavior Laboratory (BBL) and Prokaryotic Cell Imaging Facility. Research on biomaterials and coatings will be performed at UWEB. Graduate and undergraduate students will be exchanged.
