A simple two-step, shaking-assisted polydopamine (PDA) coating technique was used to impart polypropylene (PP) mesh with antimicrobial properties. In this modified method, a relatively large concentration of dopamine (20 mg ml<sup>-1</sup>) was first used to create a stable PDA primer layer, while the second step utilized a significantly lower concentration of dopamine (2 mg ml<sup>-1</sup>) to promote the formation and deposition of large aggregates of PDA nanoparticles. Gentle shaking (70 rpm) ...[more]
