Anti-adherent activity of nano-coatings deposited by thermionic vacuum arc plasma on C. albicans biofilm formation.BACKGROUND
 The purpose of this study was to analyze the anti-adherent activity of nano-coatings deposited by Thermionic Vacuum Arc plasma on C. albicans ATCC 10231 biofilm.


 Using thermionic vacuum arc plasma, they were coated with ZnO, SnO2, and Ag.  SnO2 coating shown greater anti-adherent activity than either metal oxides.  C. albicans biofilm formation on denture base surfaces is reduced following Thermionic Vacuum Arc plasma coating with SnO2.
