Additional information

-Seminal paper describes the activity of widening spectrum of metal/metal-oxide nano-particles against pathogens associated with peri-implantitis.

-First description of antimicrobial activity of the engineered metal/metal-oxide nanoparticles, against full range oral pathogens.

-Assists development of novel and innovative antimicrobial agents, in the face of antimicrobial resistance. Multi-functional and durable implant coating is of considerable commercial interest.

-Sponsored by TSB/SEEDA Funding on Antimicrobial Nanoparticles £3.2M.

-Led to Dental Research International GlaxoSmithKline funding to develop antimicrobial bio-nanomaterials for dental implant coatings

-Involvement of Johnson Matthey plc to develop special metal nano-particles processing capability for mixed nano particles towards a £1.2billion world wide market.
