| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A wide variety of solid, artificial biomaterials are implanted in the human body for a range of different purposes and have made a significant contribution to medical progress. However, one disadvantage with these biomaterials is that they provide a suitable site for bacterial colonization in implant-related infection. The biofilm that envelope the bacteria protect them from the immune system and anti-bacterial agents, so implant-related infections are extremely difficult to treat. This study revealed that some environmental factors participating bacterial adherence and biofilm formation. We achieved 50 conference presentations involving 8 invited lectures, and 20 scientific manuscripts involving 7 SCIE journals.
