Reference number : GC-2017-Q2-04317, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Ramsay, Juliana (Queen’s University), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Ontario, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for Universities, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les universités, program purpose english : Graphene is a potentially disruptive technology in the medical sector. The focus of this project is to evaluate the antibacterial_x000D_
properties of Grafoids graphene materials and correlate the materials characteristics (such as its wetability, surface coverage,_x000D_
film thickness, surface morphology, and type of support) with bacterial kill. This information will provide insight into the_x000D_
mechanism(s) of kill and contribute to developing materials with improved/optimized antimicrobial properties and guide potential_x000D_
applications. The knowledge obtained will aid Grafoid in the development of joint ventures to create a suite of products with_x000D_
