Boron nitride nanofilms will replace antibiotics for protection against bacterial and fungal infections

NUST MISIS material scientists have presented antibacterial nano-coatings based on boron nitride, which are highly effective against microbial pathogens (up to 99.99%). They can become a safe alternative to the usual antibiotics in implantology since they do not have typical negative side effects. The results of the work are published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.
