Abstract
We disclose a system for preparing antimicrobial surfaces, coated with metal oxide nanoparticles by means of a novel sonochemical method. These antibacterial surfaces are widely used in medical and other applications. The deposition of metal oxides known to possess antimicrobial activity, namely ZnO, MgO and CuO, can significantly extend the applications of textile fabrics, medical devices and other items and prolong the period of their use. By means of the novel sonochemical method disclosed here, uniform deposition of metal oxide nanoparticles is achieved simply.
