Effect of Zinc and tin Oxides on the Bactericidal Properties of Glass Enamel Coatings

The possibility of using zinc and tin oxides as antimicrobial agents in bactericidal glass enamel coatings is examined. The dependence of the inhibitory power of glass enamel coatings based on zinc and tin oxides on the CFU concentration of E. Coli is determined. The optimal amount of zinc and tin oxides imparting a strong antibacterial effect to glass enamel coatings under the conditions of a severe bacterial infection is determined.
