Shark-skin-inspired antibacterial surface
Shark-skin-inspired antibacterial surface. Close-up of Sharklet an antibacterial material whose surface structure was inspired by the microstructures found on the surface of shark skin. The tiny, diamond shaped microstructures, known as denticles, found on shark skin are known to deter bacteria and other microorganisms from establishing a colony. The rough surface requires more energy output from the microorganism to grow on which in turn inhibits their growth. The Sharklet film can be applied to high-touch surfaces such as restroom doors and toilet handles or coated on medical devices and other germ-free equipment.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a close-up of a shark-skin-inspired antibacterial surface known as Sharklet. Drawing inspiration from the microstructures found on the surface of shark skin, this innovative material features tiny diamond-shaped structures called denticles. These denticles possess remarkable properties that deter bacteria and other microorganisms from establishing colonies. The rough texture of the Sharklet film requires higher energy output for microorganisms to grow, effectively inhibiting their growth and preventing bacterial contamination. This breakthrough technology has immense potential in various industries, including healthcare and biotechnology. With its ability to be applied to high-touch surfaces like restroom doors, toilet handles, medical devices, and germ-free equipment, Sharklet offers an effective solution for maintaining cleanliness and reducing the risk of infections. By imitating nature's design principles through biomimicry, scientists have successfully developed a synthetic material that mimics the bacteriological defense mechanism found in sharks' skin. This stunning photograph not only highlights the intricate detail of this bioengineered surface but also emphasizes its potential applications in improving hygiene standards across different sectors. As we continue to explore new frontiers in materials science and biotechnology, innovations like Sharklet pave the way for safer environments by harnessing nature's wisdom.
