Abstract

Thanks to the polymer revolution of the 20th century, plastics have become part of everyday life. The type of plastics in which linear polymer chains are connected by cross-linking units is called polymer crosslinks. During our work, we aimed to develop antibacterial polymers that can help improve the health of animals and increase their useful life. The aim of study was to investigate the antibacterial effect of silver nitrate-containing polymer paint under in-vitro conditions on Escherichia coli bacterial cultures. Based on the results, one can conclude that have successfully produced an antibacterial surface treatment paint containing silver nitrate (AgNO3). Microbiological tests confirmed that the paint containing silver nitrate has a significant antibacterial effect on the E. coli bacteria. The increase in concentration did not increase the antibacterial efficiency, but the antimicrobial effect became more balanced.
