Abstrak

Initial studies indicate that structured polymer surfaces can support the attachment and biofilm formation of bacteria and thereby provide enhanced positive effects of beneficial bacteria, for instance in biocontrol in aquacultures. In this study, we demonstrate a test platform to further explore the surface topography for bacterial attachment and biofilm growth. It is based on a cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) materials platform, and nanoimprint technology was used for the replication of microstructures. The use of nanoimprint technology ensures precise micropattern transfer, enabling easy prototyping. Further, the process parameters of the mold preparation and nanoimprinting are discussed, with the purpose of optimizing the polymer pattern profile. This study has the potential to identify promising surfaces for biofilm growth of beneficial bacteria.
