Early-stage corrosion, ion release, and the antibacterial effect of copper and cuprous oxide in physiological buffers: Phosphate-buffered saline vs Na-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid
{{output}}
Copper surfaces are well known for their antibacterial effects due to the release of copper ions. This benefit has been shown in many antibacterial efficiency tests, however, without considering the corrosion behaviors of copper in the physiological solutions,... ...
