Effect of electric current in viability, biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: A systematic review.

Background: The bactericidal effect of electric current has been studied in various microorganisms such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The objective of this review is to identify the experimental parameters with the greatest antibacterial effect in the shortest time.

Methods: Literature search was conducted in the databases PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar.

Disinfection mechanism of the photocatalytic activity of SnO thin films against , proposed from experimental and simulated perspectives.

Nosocomial infections are an important health problem and cause of complications and death in hospitalized patients. This problem should be solved from the preventive angle, avoiding the spread of infections by designing disinfection methods based on the photocatalytic activity of semiconductor materials such as tin oxide (SnO). The antimicrobial activity of UV light was tested by using inoculation with ATCC10231 on SnO thin films and counting colony forming units (CFU).
