Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction For the construction of any dental prosthesis, accurate impressions are necessary. Hence, we undertook the present study to evaluate and compare the surface hardness of gypsum casts poured from impressions made using conventional alginate and self-disinfecting alginate. Materials and methods A total of 30 impressions of stainless steel die were made, out of which 15 impressions were made with conventional alginate and 15 were made with selfdisinfecting alginate and poured using Type III dental stone. Thirty stone specimens were subjected for hardness testing. Data were analyzed using independent samples t-test to compare the mean surface hardness. Results Difference in surface hardness was statistically insignificant (p > 0.05). Conclusion Surface hardness of gypsum casts poured using impressions made from self-disinfecting alginate and conventional alginates were comparable. Clinical significance Self-disinfecting alginates may be employed in clinical practice as safe and effective materials to overcome the infection control issues without compromising on the properties of the material.

Abstract:
SUMMARYA disinfectant (2,4,4′-trichloro-2′-hydroxydiphenyl ether: Irgasan, Ciba-Geigy) was incorporated into plastic washers fabricated from ethylvinyl acetate (EVA), polyethylene, polypropylene or TPX. Plastics containing 0·2 and 2% Irgasan gave zones of inhibition on nutrient and blood agar plates seeded with micro-organisms (Staphylococcus aureus, Staph, epidermidis Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilisorCandida albicans) even after thorough washing. Exceptionally,C. albicanswas inhibited only by 2% Irgasan, and EVA gave good inhibition only against the staphylococci. Similar washers of each plastic were implanted subcutaneously into the flanks of rabbits; before insertion each was washed, had thread woven into it and was surrounded by a plasma clot containing 2 × 108Staph. aureus. All the plastics without Irgasan gave rise to abscesses, none of the plastics impregnated with 2% Irgasan did, though from 2 out of 12 sites small numbers ofStaph. aureuswere isolated atpost mortem. Using either clinical or bacteriological criteria, the results were highly significant (P< 0.00001 andP<0.001 respectively), demonstrating the effectiveness of this technique in preventing plastic-associated infection.

Abstract:
The antibacterial activities of different thin films (TiO2/CuO, Cu/SiO2 and Ag/SiO2) prepared by flame-assisted chemical vapour deposition (FACVD) and atmospheric pressure thermal (APT-FCVD) for TiO2/CuO films, were investigated against standard strains of bacteria used for disinfectant testing and against multi-antibiotic resistant bacteria that have been shown to persist in the hospital environment. These included; MRSA strains (EMRSA15 and two recent clinical isolates MRSA 1595 and MRSA 1669), extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli, a second (ESBL- 2 ) producing Escherichia coli, KPC+ (carbapenemase producing) Klebsiella pneumoniae, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Acinetobacter baumannii, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica ser typhimurium, and vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) . The Antimicrobial activity of the above coatings (Cu/SiO2 and Ag/SiO2) was investigated based on the BS ISO 22196:2009 and 2011 Plastics – Measurement of antibacterial activity on plastics and other porous surfaces. The activity of TiO2/CuO films was investigated based on the BS ISO 27447:2009 Test method for antibacterial activity of semiconducting photocatalytic materials. On the TiO2/CuO films, the bacteria were killed by UVA irradiation of the photocatalyst with a >5 log kill within 4-6 h except for the MRSA where a 2.3 log kill was obtained after 6 h increasing to >5 log after 24 h. There was antimicrobial activity in the dark which was enhanced by irradiation with fluorescent light. There was also activity at 5ºC under UVA but activity was lower when fluorescent light was used for illumination. The Cu/SiO2 coating showed a >5 log reduction in viability after 4 h for the disinfectant test strain (E.coli) and for some pathogenic strains include; Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. However, their activity against the other hospital isolates was slower but still gave a >5 log reduction for extended spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica typhimurium, and > 2.5 log reduction for vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium, Listeria and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus within 24 h. The coating was also active at 5ºC but was slow compared to room temperature. The highest activity of copper /silica films was seen at 35ºC, but bacterial cells were also killed on the control surfaces. The Ag/SiO2 coating was also active against pathogenic bacteria; however the coating was not hard or durable as other coatings used. The activity on natural contamination in an in use test in a toilet facility was also determined for coated ceramic tiles (Cu/SiO2 and Ag/SiO2) and coated steel. The results demonstrated that the tiles were highly active for the first 4 months period and the contamination was reduced by >99.9%. However, tiles lost some of their activity after simulated ageing and washing cycles. The Cu/SiO2 coated ceramic tiles placed in Manchester Royal Infirmary also showed antimicrobial activity and no indicator organisms were detected. The coatings had a good activity against both standard test strains and clinical isolates. The coatings (copper surfaces in particular), may have applications in health care by maintaining a background antimicrobial activity between standard cleaning and disinfection regimes. They may also have applications in other areas where reduction in microbial environmental contamination is important, for example, in the food industry. However, the optimum composition for use needs to be a balance between activity and durability.

Abstract:
L'objectif principal de ce travail est d'étudier les mécanismes d'oxydation lors de la photocatalyse (TiO2 irradié sous UV-A) appliquée à la dégradation des microorganismes et leurs effets sur les composants cellulaires. L'étude de l'efficacité antimicrobienne de TiO2 sur un panel de microorganismes (bactéries, spores, champignons) réalisée dans différents milieux (TiO2 en milieu riche, 'sec', en phase liquide) montre l'influence des méthodes d'évaluation, de test et de comptage sur les efficacités d'inactivation. Des études menées en présence de molécules scavengers d'anions superoxydes (O2°-) mettent en évidence l'implication des O2°- dans l'effet antibactérien et dans la peroxydation lipidique. Au niveau protéomique, diverses cibles d'action potentielles du TiO2 sont aussi proposées. Enfin, une partie applicative détermine l'efficacité antimicrobienne de dispositifs photocatalytiques équipés de mousses alvéolaires de β-SiC et de diodes électroluminescentes, et met en avant les propriétés auto-désinfectantes sous lumière solaire de textiles photocatalytiques fonctionnalisés par la technique layer-by-layer.

Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis was developed in collaboration with a Portuguese company, BeyonDevices, devoted to pharmaceutical packaging, medical technology and device industry. Specifically, the composition impact and surface modification of two polymeric medical devices from the company were studied: inhalers and vaginal applicators. The polyethylene-based vaginal applicator was modified using supercritical fluid technology to acquire self-cleaning properties and prevent the transport of bacteria and yeasts to vaginal flora. For that, in-situ polymerization of 2-substituted oxazolines was performed within the polyethylene matrix using supercritical carbon dioxide. The cationic ring-opening polymerization process was followed by end-capping with N,N-dimethyldodecylamine. Furthermore, for the same propose, the polyethylene matrix was impregnated with lavender oil in supercritical medium. The obtained materials were characterized physical and morphologically and the antimicrobial activity against bacteria and yeasts was accessed. Materials modified using 2-substituted oxazolines showed an effective killing ability for all the tested microorganisms, while the materials modified with lavender oil did not show antimicrobial activity. Only materials modified with oligo(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) maintain the activity during the long term stability. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of the materials was tested, confirming their biocompatibilty. Regarding the inhaler, its surface was modified in order to improve powder flowability and consequently, to reduce powder retention in the inhaler´s nozzle. New dry powder inhalers (DPIs), with different needle’s diameters, were evaluated in terms of internal resistance and uniformity of the emitted dose. It was observed that they present a mean resistance of 0.06 cmH2O0.5/(L/min) and the maximum emitted dose obtained was 68.9% for the inhaler with higher needle´s diameter (2 mm). Thus, this inhaler was used as a test and modified by the coating with a commonly-used force control agent, magnesium stearate, dried with supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) and the uniformity of delivered dose tests were repeated. The modified inhaler showed an increase in emitted dose from 68.9% to 71.3% for lactose and from 30.0% to 33.7% for Foradil.
