Luminescent polysaccharides thin films with potential bactericidal activity
Summary
Thesis on luminescent chitosan/alginate films built layer by layer on glass and polystyrene, with europium ions added either between or within the bilayers and, in some samples, the ligand tta. Adding europium afterwards gave brighter emission, tta lengthened the emission lifetime and smoothed the surface, ellipsometry and a quartz microbalance confirmed regular growth on polystyrene, and the films resisted adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
